Iran & Its Future.Org
Our mission at Iran & Its Future.org is simple yet at the same time complex, much like the history and the culture of the country, itself. Our mission lies deep within the understanding of our culture and the world in which we live today. The world needs and seems to be eager to understand the human element of the Iranian culture; yet is frightened by what they see and sometimes baffled by how little they know despite what they thought they ‘knew’. Bridging that gap is what we are expert at in our NGO and is what we are going to share with you… When it comes to history, Iran does not disappoint. Our written history goes back as far as years. The name Persian Gulf was not given to the body of water between Iran and the Southern border countries during the past dynasty. It has been so named since way before words were written on paper anywhere, in the world. The evidence is found carved into the stones and artifacts from ancient Persia dating back thousands of years. There is no short way to explain what Iran is; the only way to understand Iran is to see it. Iran & Its Future.org aims to become a bridge between the Iranian people and the outside world. We aim to be a platform for Iranian artists to showcase their art through our future museum project. The current sample page found on LinkedIn and Facebook can be, an educational page to visit. Our NGO is a place of gathering of great minds and our aim is to make Iran & Its Future.org website a sort of Silk Road of cross cultural exchange; a cyber café if you will, where you will get to know Iran. When it comes to collaborating with Iranians outside Iran, our goal is to tap into the massive talent pool of highly sought after medical professionals to create a program to benefit not just Iranian children but any burned child. Our first patient from our Burned Children Program is on his way to the United States to receive reconstructive surgery

Ultimately, Muttville will have its own facility to house dogs that are not yet placed, or that are unlikely to be placed. Muttville was started in 2007 by Sherri Franklin, a longtime animal advocate and rescue worker. Sherri has spent years rescuing dogs, especially senior dogs. She recognized that the need was greater than she as an individual could ever address.
