This upcoming South Asian event organized by Surrey women to break gender-based stigma. Lohri is a traditional festival originating from India to welcome new family members to a home. The birth of a baby is typically one of many happy milestones shared by families, with celebrations to mark the arrival of a newborn. But in some South Asian cultures, expressions of joy often only ensue if the baby born is a boy. For this reason, a group of Surrey women are working to change things up by holding an inaugural event to recognize the births of baby girls in addition to boys.
Every individual who submits their baby’s name— regardless of gender — with the organizers of the Lohri festival will be recognized at the event with a gift.
