Past 12 months in Seva
Remarkably, we are only a blink of an eye away from the New Year. 2015 brought us the opportunity to do seva, or selfless service, without fear or favour because we had your support. As we enter our 17th year as an organization, we thank you for your past support and ask you to support us again so we may work for the betterment of people in need across the globe through our offices in ten nations. Join us as we look back at our work this year, and please make your year-end tax deductible donation. |
