You have seen me posting about various events every month...I try to give my
heart and soul to South Minneapolis, my adopted home. But I have another home
too..In North East India..as state called Assam. I organized a fundraisers for
almost 12 years to empower women. From last year, South Minneapolis Rotary
helps and now it is our combined effort. Every dollar you donate, get
multiplied by our Rotary club.
You may wonder why I am so passionate about Assam. Well, 21% of human
trafficking from India is from Assam. The mighty river Brahmaputra is the
heart of Assam, it provide livelihood for many people and at the same time it
destroy many houses every year. We have flood at least three a year. People
learn to cope with flood... which means, not much development, not much
literacy. Who get affected the most? Young girls.. High rate of child
marriage, human trafficking, witch hunting etc etc...
I have decided to devote my life for North East India and South Minneapolis.
Six months there, six months here. I need your help and support. This
Saturday, October 6th, 6pm is our annual fundraiser 'Where the brahmaputra
meets the Mississippi' . I have not much energy left as we are focussing on
getting Out in the Backyard (local organization) be a non-profit and keep it
going. I need your support and help...We are living in a global village and we
need to help each other. If you are not available, then you can always donate
online or write a check...your help means a lot. If you are a business owner,
please consider sponsoring our event. We have three levels of sponsorship.
