In any currency this is a substantial effort.
Acknowledgements:
Many persons have cared enough to put in a lot of work in raising
funds. A very generous donation from Mr Neil D Hamilton of Paris,
helped to initiate the "For Love of God - Hamilton Trust
Fund" covering Seniors in Howrah and surrounding areas.
We have a good effort in the UK and Australia and an excellent
effort in Canada. In November Canada (Toronto) organized the
fifth Tiljallah Relief Dinner Dance that resulted in a contribution
of over $5,000CA. In addition many Canadian and US AI’s
sponsor Loreto girls and Bow Bazaar children. In the US we raised
over $20,000 from non-AI’s and AI’s. As we increase
our commitments we need to develop more funding avenues.
