Find the purpose, means will follow

Dear friends, well-wishers, supporters :

Greetings and good wishes from IDF !

We wish to share the success story of `blanket mobilising movement' which helped a number of leprosy affected persons. No sooner the appeal reached the people, we started receiving blankets for the protection of poor leprosy affected persons to protect them from biting cold.

We write to thank all the `karmayogis' for their kind support in mobilising blankets for leprosy patients. The call for blankets given through Karmayog website was timely responded by a couple of friends. Our thanks to Karmayog too for their continued support.

On behalf of all the leprosy affected persons and friends in the leprosy colonies we send our sincere thanks to all the donors-well-wishers and their family members for timely providing the inmates with blankets to protect from the biting cold.

Mr. Thomas from Kusht Niwaran Society, Patna, Bihar was instrumental in co-ordinating the blanket distribution to the leprosy colonies in Bihar, while the blankets in Rajasthan were distributed through Sarthak Manav Kushthashram in Jaipur and Ajmer. We could also distribute blankets to leprosy persons in Ooty region. The blankets received in Mumbai were distributed locally.

This is a real success story of benevolence. Mahatma Gandhi said, `find the purpose, the means will follow'.

Once again our thanks to the `karmayogis' for all the timely support. We look forward to your kind patronage in the near future too.

With regards and good wishes,

Dr. Narayan B. Iyer
