On March 5th, Sandy Ogletree and I will travel to India to visit with the Unitarians in the Khasi Hills of northeast India. UCN sponsors a young man at the Unitarian school there, and we will get to meet him. There are many needs in the area, and we want to help with some of them. We are going to take some school supplies along to distribute. We also want to be able to buy blankets, which we understand are in short supply in that area. Not all of India is very hot. Several people have asked us how they could help with this. Of course, we will accept cash donations, but if you would like to get tax credit, you could make a check to UCN, with Soc Just - India in the Memo. We will then take the money from that account. It would be most helpful if you could send or donate your money by Feb. 26th, but if you need to donate later, we will still make sure the money is well used.
(Editor's note: More information about the Khasi Hills Unitarians is available in UUA President Peter Morales's blog.)
Thank you in advance, from our Unitarian friends in India,
Marcia Slosser
