This resolution commemorates September 30, 2025, as M.T.O. Shahmaghsoudi Day, recognizing the Maktab Tarighat Oveyssi (M.T.O.) Shahmaghsoudi, a nonprofit organization dedicated to Islamic Sufism and community service. The resolution highlights the organization's extensive community contributions, including supporting disaster relief, engaging in charitable works, promoting interfaith dialogue, and offering educational initiatives across multiple California cities. M.T.O. Shahmaghsoudi is praised for its academic programs, including Tamarkoz meditation classes at UC Davis and UC Berkeley, its ongoing donations to local food banks and shelters, and its significant COVID-19 response, which involved distributing personal protective equipment and care kits. The organization is also recognized for its environmental stewardship efforts, such as community river cleanups, sustainable gardening, and using clean energy sources. The resolution specifically honors Professor Nader Angha, the Pir Oveyssi (spiritual leader) of M.T.O. Shahmaghsoudi, and instructs the Chief Clerk of the Assembly to distribute copies of the resolution.
