Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh Serving Katrina Victims

[Guest guest]

HSS Serving Katrina Victims

 

Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh (HSS) expresses heartfelt sympathy for the

victims of hurricane Katrina, one of the worst natural disasters in

the USA. HSS urges all Hindus in America to rise to the occasion by

adressing needs of the people suffered by hurricane Katrina.

 

 

 

HSS has appealed its hundreds of volunteers in all 90 chapters of HSS

to help through collecting donations, canned foods, cookies,

crackers, bottled water, juices, medical supplies and blankets. HSS

requests all monetary contributions directed to Sewa International or

American Red Cross. Dozens of volunteers from Houston, including

children attending several Balagokulams, have already started the

collection. The HSS office at Keshav Smrithi, 4018 Westhollow Pkwy,

Houston, TX 77082 has been designated as the contact point for all

relief efforts.

 

 

 

 

 

HSS is working with authorities in Houston in meeting the immediate

needs of the displaced people arriving from New Orleans. The

government officials and American Red Cross have opened various

shelters in Houston. HSS volunteers will serve in these local Red

Cross shelters in Houston and other area. Volunteers are also

coordinating with other shelters and motels, which have become

temporary homes for victims. Volunteers are also contacting

physicians, asking them to contribute their time and medical supplies

and businesses to provide material help.
