MiYF was founded by Miss Mandana Sharifi thru Christ on July 30th 1997. This is her testimony. MIYF received its 501(c)3 charity status in Florida a year later (N98000004117 www.sunbiz.org) under Florida Dept of Business & Professional Regulations. We were then awarded charitable status on the Island of Bermuda in Dec 11th 2001 (Reg#610). In addition we are very proud to be awarded UK charity status on 16th Aug 2011. Request MIYF to bring the 'Stop The Violence' Awareness campaign to a city near you. In December 2010 we brought it to Bermuda http://www.royalgazette.com/article/20101230/island/712309971 thru our founder Mandana Sharifi who is also the former City of Bath UK PACT Forum Chair (Oct 2010-Feb 2013 www.cityofbath.blogspot.com ) with the PACT panel consisting of local Police and Government with the aim of listening and responding to communities' concerns. We aim to have a PACT Forum chapter in every community worldwide www.pactforum.org or www.pactforum.com.
