Nazanin Afshin-Jam's has released a Christmas song titled "On Christmas Day."

ALL the proceeds of the song is being donated to the Stop Child Executions campaign.  

Stop Child Executions Campaign was co-founded by Nazanin to raise awareness about this issue, and more importantly to put an end to one of the most heinous manifestations of the death penalty -- its use against children. Additionally, the single will be available for sale on itunes.
  
 “While we are gathered by the fire singing Christmas songs, I want the children in the cold prison cells in Iran to know that they are not forgotten. I want them to feel hope that they have another chance at life. We are a completely volunteer based organization, so every penny goes directly to the campaign." said Nazanin.
 
According to the United Nations, a child is a person under the age of 18. Despite the fact that the government of Iran has signed International Covenants that forbid them to execute anyone who has allegedly committed an offence before the age of 18, they continue to do so. Amnesty International has documented 24 executions of child offenders in Iran since 1990. In many cases, these minors have been imprisoned until the age of 18 and then executed. Currently, there are over 80 minors on death row in Iran. 
 
Nazanin and Stop Child Executions Campaign have helped and witnessed that some child offenders in Iran were not executed or even released because of the international pressure.
