WALKATHON TO SUPPORT NON-VIOLENCE
Mahatma Gandhi (M. K. Gandhi, referred to as Gandhi ji) is known as the “Father of the Nation” for India as he was the champion for the non-violence movement in India and that resulted in the freedom of India. Dr. Martin Luther King was a big believer in Gandhi ji’s ideology of non-violence.
October 2, 2019 marks the 150thBirth Anniversary for Gandhi ji. The Hindu Temple would like to mark this special day with a Walkathon dedicated in support of Non-Violence. The Walkathon is being planned currently and we are seeking like-minded partners to make this a joint success for the communities of Albuquerque and New Mexico.
We are hoping that since your organization supports non-violence, you may be interested in joining hands with us and we all can walk together on this historic event.
We, being a 501-(c)-3 organization, are not doing this to raise funds but mainly to raise the awareness against violence in all walks of life. Your support will be very much appreciated; and the support may come in any form – be it financial, logistics or to show the strength in numbers.
Please reach out to me at 510-364-6095 or the President of the temple Mr. Jaiswal at 505-980-6649 for any questions. My email is ympathak@yahoo.com.
We look forward to your support in joining this event and making it a big success.
