In South India, among those
most affected by the pandemic are the daily wagers. They have lost their jobs
and are facing immense difficulty in surviving without transportation, food
and medicines during the current lockdown. Most
daily wagers make only $8 per day when they are working.
Ayang Rinpoche is initiating a charity program to
distribute food to these poorest families. In this way, the monastery and Drikung Charitable Society can make sure
the daily wagers receive necessities directly into their hands.
If you,
or any of Rinpoche's students and their friends and families, would like to join in this
food distribution initiative, you are welcome to donate
either through the world-wide Amitabha Foundations or directly to
the monastery's account. They
would appreciate receiving the funds by May 3.
Here is a link to make
your US tax-deductible offering online through the Amitabha Foundation US.
You may make a one-time or recurring gift of any amount, or at one of the
suggested levels:
$24 for
3 day's wages
$56 for
one week's wages
$240
for one month's wages
Rinpoche
welcomes you to include names for dedication. Please see the field in the payment link to include
your names.
May all
beings benefit by our generosity!
