Sikhs reach out to Haiti earthquake hit
WSN Network

FREMONT: becoming part of the worldwide effort to reach out to the earthquake-hit Haiti, one of the poorest nations on Earth that has to contend with the fallout of the natural calamity, the sangat at Gurdwara Sahib, Fremont rallied together for a fund raiser organized by the management. 

Every penny collected is to be sent straight to White House, Washington DC that has set up the Clinton-Bush Committee to oversee the rescue, relief and rehabilitation efforts. 

Gurdwara Sahib, Fremont's general secretary Satnam Singh Khalsa said all donations made for the purpose shall be accounted for and asked the local Sikh sangat to open their purse strings for this larger humanitarian cause. Gurughar's main sewadar Bhai Harjot Singh Khalsa said he had a special word of thanks for the seniors in the community who have taken a lead in sewa. He said the management will ensure that all collected money reaches the needy and will not allow the practice of applying some cuts as many other relief organizations do.
