Thanks to all who generously donated to the drive tonight at the Diwali Function!! Your donation is much appreciated and will definitely be going to a great cause!
Special thanks to Rupa Aunty, Devi Aunty, Rashmi Aunty and Jhansi Aunty who brought clothing - it was so nice of you to take the time and bring saris for the drive! Also, to those of you who gave a monetary donation - THANK YOU! We raised about $365 tonight.... that's incredible! To the girls who helped me (Avanti, Aastha, Esha, Parthvi & Nikitha): WOW! Wonderful work, girls! Thanks for taking the time tonight to ask for donations -- it is much appreciated!
I will be visiting Chicago next weekend and look forward to visiting Apna Ghar. I will give the donations I have collected so far, but there will be another date coming up soon for those who'd like to donate clothes that didn't get a chance. Remember, both Indian and Western clothes for women, children AND men are welcome! If you'd like me to pick up your donation, or if you'd like to drop off your donation at my home, please email me at dhanwadj@uni.edu. Feel free to email if you have any questions as well! Again, thank you SO much to those who donated. Together, we can make a big difference!!
