Benevolence through Blankets

In response to our appeal in Karmayog.org, http://groups.yahoo.com/group/karmayog/message/46623
Mr. Rishi Jai Prakash from Rio-India walked into IDF office this morning with 25 blankets for distribution to poor leprosy affected persons living in leprosy colonies in northern India.
No sooner i saw IDF's appeal for blankets, i thought of presenting them and of course New Year is an excellent opportunity for me to share goodness with the have-nots, said Mr. Rishi.
I will speak to a couple of my contacts and see that more blankets are made available to protect the people suffering from biting cold, expressed Mr. Rishi as he handed over 25 blankets to Dr. Narayan B. Iyer, national co-ordinator of IDF.
People have option either to donate blankets physically or even contribute money for blankets, we are hard pressed with time and patients are waiting for some help, said Dr. Narayan thanking Mr. Rishi for his benevolent gesture.
We request more people to join hands in the blanket mobilising movement.
