Health and Community Fair

On March 11th, 2009, Buchanan Technologies hosted a community health fair in the Shoh-Sohail Family's name. The fair, which included free health screenings for the local community, was held at the VHA Building on the Mandalay Canal in the prestigious Las Colinas business district.

The fair was hosted in an effort to inform, educate and empower the community to adapt healthier lifestyle behaviors for 2009.

All donations and proceeds of the fair directly benefited the family of Zargham and Suzie Shoh-Sohail, owners and operators of Subz-n-Stuff Restaurant in Irving, Texas. On November 28, the owners and their two children were involved in a very tragic accident. During a serene carriage ride in the town of Little Rock, Arkansas, the entire family was struck by a city bus, resulting in hospitalization of several family members. The family was not medically insured and has since incurred several medical bills from the hospitalization. Throughout this hard time, the family has maintained their business in the Las Colinas area with superb service.

The majority of the booths located at the community fair were free to the public, although a few required proof of insurance and/or minor fees.
