Southern California Sangat Joins for Seva
WSN Network  

ANAHEIM, CA:  The Sikh community of Los Angeles donated over 15,000 blankets along with food and toys to the Fred Jordan Mission located downtown. This was the eighth consecutive year that Sikhs from nearby areas collaborated in doing seva.

The seva opportunity every year is organized by the Nanak Parchar Sabha and the Ujjal Didar Singh Foundation, along with various Gurdwara Sahibs located throughout Los Angeles. Sikh sangat showed great enthusiasm in helping collect blankets and food for the needy. Every year, the Sikh community from various Gurdwaras donates generously towards the praiseworthy cause.

One of the participants in the seva said that many homeless people have to face dire conditions in the winter months because of the cold weather. This year especially has been very critical in aspects of the weather conditions so the attempts by the Sikh Community to help the needy were greatly appreciated by the Fred Jordan Mission.
