Here is one that satisfies the above criteria. Bhaagavatas may wish to send their checks addressed to R.Srinivasan, who is managing the Ashramam, citing this appeal. -------------------------- SRI RAMANUJA ASHRAMAM, (located at Vijaya Chakra Avenue, Near Nemellee Road, Chellaperumal Nagar, Sriperumbudur -602 105 Phone: 913-32724) Chennai Address: R.Srinivasan, Manager,32 Kesavaperumal Eastward Street, Mylapore, Chennai -600 004 Phone 2461 2758 -------------------------- The above Ashramam was started for the aged on 24th April 1994. Over the last 10 years, nearly 75 people have benefited from this Ashramam. Ashramam is housed in an area of 1800 Sq. feet with 15 rooms. Each resident is provided with a separate room with ceiling fan and bed. Other facilities are common. It provides accommodation and food to Senior citizens aged 75 and above, who of course, contribute a monthly subscription just enough to meet the expenses of their upkeep. 2 of them aged 82 and 86 are given free food and accommodation as they are completely destitute. In case of those who are thoroughly destitute, if and when they die in the Ashramam, their funeral is also taken care by the Ashramam in a befitting manner. In the Ashramam, Sri Tiruvenkatamudaiyan and Sri Ramanuja Vigrahams are installed and daily poojas are conducted with Tiruppavai Sathumurai in the morning and Vishnu Sahasranama Parayanam in the evening. Tirunakshatrams of Alwars and Acharyas are celebrated with devotion. At the moment due to the acute water scarcity, a jet pump to improve drinking water facilities costing Rs.20,000 is required. Also, we are planning to build three 10x10 rooms in the first floor to accommodate increasing requests for admission. I appeal to all philanthropic minded to donate for the above needs especially for this jet pump to solve the water problem. I request you to send the donations by check/draft to the Mylapore address given on top of this letter. Printed receipts in the name of the Ashramam will be sent to you for the donations received. Thanking you (Sd) R.Srinivasan ========================================================= IN THIS ISSUE 1. SWAMI NAMMAZHWAR –Part 2(Anbil Ramaswamy) 2. IMPORTANT DAYS IN ANI MONTH 3.
