Punjabs Give to Nepal Relief

 
*Update below...

If there's an opportunity in Los Angeles or Orange County to raise money for Nepal, chances are we will go.

The Festival of India Association and the Punjabi Heritage & Cultural Society put on a very entertaining event this weekend with singers, dancers, booths and of course, good food.

People got to have fun and also give to a needy cause.

 
And if you can have fun (as we did) while doing good, that's a win-win.

*UPDATE - You may ask why I put my large self in the front and center of the photo above (several people have teased me about that).

The answer: it was I who handed my phone to a stranger to take the photo, and then I just took a few steps back. Trust me, I know my place is usually in the BACK of photos, unless I'm kneeling.


If I stood out that day for the same reasons, hopefully it helped us raise more money for Nepal and that I didn't scare people away. This guy seems to do okay:

In the Earthquake Epicenter


It just so happens the Ashram where I do yoga is a part of Divine Service Home in Katmandu, a permanent home for elderly homeless people. 


They are near the middle of the earthquake destruction, and the nuns there are also helping the community any way they can. Any monies you donate here will go DIRECTLY to the people affected by this devastation - even $5 or $10 can make a big difference. 


You can contact me directly at scottware11@gmail.com or you can mail a check to Divine Art of Yoga Center, 851 W Whittier Blvd, La Habra, CA 90631. 


Thank you!
