(IN) Kolkata animal welfare group appeals for help

[Guest guest]

Dear all,

I am attaching this message with permission from Mrs Poornima

Toolsidass of People for Animals Calcutta, whom I fondly refer to as Aunty.

Please help her shelter and organisation as much as possible. Aunty has been

a tower of mental strength for me in times of difficulty and has done a huge

amount for me both personally and professionally. By distributing this

appeal, I am just trying to assist her in whatever small way possible.

Best wishes and kind regards,

 

 

Just to give you the good news that the MOU with CITU was signed last

> evening and we can hopefully look forward to unhindered progress! As you

> know, we had to retrench some people after the Pound was taken away, and we

> found ourselves facing the huge debt due to mismanagement by the previous

> administration. The managerial staff who were dismissed went to CITU, which

> resulted in a lock-out of Ashari. Fortunately, the combined efforts of the

> Trustees, Mrs.Gandhi and other well-wishers succeeded. The CITU people also

> told us that they found that they had been mislead to a considerable extent

> and will now help us in the smooth running of Ashari.

> The biggest problem now is funds!! We have to pay the salaries of extra

> staff and increase the activities for animal welfare. Please give ideas and

> contacts and help!!

> And, please pray that Ashari flourishes and people become kinder to

> animals!

> Love,
