Haiti Earthquake Relief
Just wanted to share information on some charitites you may want to consider support relief for Haiti's recovery.
The PRASAD Project is partnering with Direct Relief International. For those of you who do not know, the PRASAD Project..."is an international, not-for-profit organization committed to improving the quality of life of economically disadvantaged people around the world... The PRASAD Project was initiated in 1992 by Gurumayi Chidvilasananda, the spiritual head of the Siddha Yoga path, and is the philanthropic expression of the SYDA Foundation, the central organization of the Siddha Yoga Path."
Please visit the link below to learn more about the PRASAD Project and as a great way to offer tangible support to those in need in Haiti:
