Currently Fundraising: Bhaktivedanta National School
Building on some of the work that our late founder, Ramesh Shah did previously, we will be expanding an existing school to build a new RCC (reinforced cement concrete) building. The school, Bhaktivedanta National School in Ananad Bazar, Tripura has been operating successfully for the last four years. This school is special to the Shah family because Ramesh Shah dedicated it to his mother-in-law’s memory, and in 2018 Ramesh and his wife Kokila were able to visit the school to witness firsthand the work being done there to improve lives of children through education. We aim to raise £35,000 to complete the project.
Currently Fundraising: Tilak House
In continued partnership with Food For Life Vrindavan, we will be raising money for Tilak House – a women’s shelter where vulnerable women are trained in embroidery and needlework. During the training they will be able to sell items they make through the FFLV shop online allowing them to earn while learning. Once they have completed their training, they will continue to work for FFLV Thread for Life program. The money raised will help FFLV complete Tilak House by adding two much needed floors for offices including the office online store as well as residences for vulnerable women who wish to work their way through the program. We are aiming to raise £30,000 towards the costs of this vital program.
