Anand Charity at Bay Area Telugu and Tamil festivals

Anand Charity will be present at the Bay Area Telugu Association's (BATA) Ugadi Festival on April 5th and Bay Area Tamil Manram's Chitthirai Kondattam on April 20th. Both, Bay Area Telugu Association and Bay Area Tamil Manram, were kind enough to let us setup a booth at their popular new year celebrations. Each of these festivals attract more than 2000 people each year.

More new volunteers including two in India

Since we have started our publicity and fundraising, our team has also been growing strongly. In the last couple of weeks, we have had three new volunteers joining Anand Charity - Mrinalini, Deepak and Ram.

Mrinalini is based in India. She has completed her masters in Communication and she is planning to do research in Developmental Communication. She sees herself as a social worker in the future. She is going to help Anand Charity with the planned newsletter and is going to be our editor-in-chief.

Thank you, Anonymous Donor!

Yesterday, we received a large donation of $2500 from an anonymous donor. Thank you, Anonymous Donor, for believing in us and helping us do what we aim to do.

This does not lessen the contributions that other donors have made in the last few weeks. We have received an exciting response - many people have subscribed to recurring monthly donations with corporate matching and others have made significant donations. Together, we can make a difference to deserving lives in India! We will keep you updated with our progress frequently.
