This was in the works for some time, and is a major step in the efforts to spread the teachings of our Jagadguru Sriman Madhwacharyaru initiated by Shri Putthige Swamiji. ********************************************************* Shri Putthige Swamiji's message: We are very glad to hear the good news from Sathya. We feel our effort has reached to Lord Sri Krishna and Srimadaachaarya. ********************************************************* I would like to thank all our Madhwa bandus associated in this effort. In the last 3 years lots of Madhwa related activities are happening all across the US and let us continue our seva in acheiving the goals set in our esteemed VMS organization.

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2001 Report Share Posted September 4, 2001 Hello Sathya, This is great indeed. We have a few people in Michigan would like to utilize this opportunity and support projects in India. Probably, we need to set some guidelines on what kind of projects and how to use VMS name etc.. soon. This way there will be no confusion from the individual chapters as to what can be encouraged. Once again, thanks to all of you for a great effort in getting this.

We have some restrictions in where we can donate money in India. 501c3 rules state that money should only be given to organizations registered as Charitable institutions in India. VMS needs to make sure that the money is really being used for charitable activities We need to be aware of these restrictions when planning charitable activities. Let us discuss these planning details in the separate vms volunteers list that we have. I take this opportunity to request any volunteers who want to help in this or other volunteer work for VMS to contact VMS office bearers at madhva. Namaste, Regards, Vasu Murthy ===== Vasu Murthy Email:vmurthy Change your thoughts, change your life. Get email alerts & NEW webcam video instant messaging with Messenger http://im.
