Thank you for making a difference to victims of the Nepal Earthquake
Update on 05/05/2015:
Receipt from RedCross attached here.
We will keep this short.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
You, the members of the Cambrian Indian Community, helped raise over $850 for the victims of the Nepal Earthquake which has claimed over 5000 lives and counting.
To put this in perspective, when Sonal originally proposed the idea to CIC, she had modest expectations. She suggested that we request a dollar per person for whoever chose to donate. Since this was our first time, we were not sure what to expect. But blow away our expectations, you did (it is May 4th, Star Wars Day after all :)).
And here is the best part- many of you have contributed not just through Cambrian Cares but also through your employer for a donation match and/or tax reasons. Your generosity makes us proud.
We will donate the amount to RedCross in the coming days and share the receipt in the comments section of this post.
Thank you once again. You have demonstrated what it takes to make and build a community.
