Dear all,

The New York Chapter of Chinmaya Organization for Rural Development a 501C(3) organization is doing the annual fundraiser run/walk on Saturday 22nd October 2016 at 555 12th Ave New York, New York 10036.

CORD is a non-profit that focuses on empowering the poor villages in the Indian sub-continent through education, skills training and other programs. This year we are raising money for the war widows in Sri Lanka. The civil war has left over 100,000 war widows and 1000's of orphans and CORD Sri Lanka is actively working on value education programs for the orphans and income generation programs for the women.

To help these war widows, click here

Our New York volunteer recently visited the CORD center in the tribal areas of the Himalayas to see in person the efforts and progress and had an absolutely wonderful experience. Check out her blog for all the details.

With warm regards,
NY Chapter for CORD

About CORD: The organization has impacted close to 700 remote villages (500,000 people directly and indirectly) in India over the last 28 years by providing sustainable solutions to poverty and unemployment as opposed to charitable giving. CORD has provided income generation activities for 13,000 villagers and also created several programs to resolve social issues including illiteracy, domestic abuse, female feticide, alcoholism to name a few.

The national director of CORD Dr. Kshama Metre was awarded one of Nation’s highest honors, Padmashri, by the President of India in 2008 for her dedication and the tremendous success of CORD in rural development. She recently also won the Guardian International Development Award.

About Swami Prakashananda

A young seeker from Trinidad met Pujya Gurudev Swami Chinmayananda during Chinmaya Mission's Jnana Yajna at a university in Toronto. He eagerly approached Gurudev to join the Mission and, in 1991, traveled to Mumbai, India to study the scriptures before taking the vows of a brahmachari. Pujya Guruji Swami Tejomayananda initiated Premji into sannyasa as Swami Prakashananda on Mahashivaratri, in 2005.

CM Trinidad has grown in leaps and bounds, enhanced by Swamiji's devotion, tireless dynamism, humility, and selfless service.

After graduating with his Bachelor's degree from Stony Brook University, he worked as an accounting manager in New York City for three years. It was in 2011 that he felt a pressing inner call to study Vedanta. Inspired by the philosophical teachings offered by Chinmaya Mission, that same year, he joined the Mission's two-year residential Vedanta Course in India at the Sandeepany Sadhanalaya ashram in Powai, Mumbai. He graduated from the course in 2013 and chose to serve Chinmaya Mission New York as resident acharya.
