Dear Friends,
Please see the mail/pics from Fr Augutine. Kumar is a Mason and he is basically from Tamilnadu. He's been living in Athani since many years and Fr has helped in the past to get him some work. This is a genuine case and I think we should help. Please note that this family is from Athani (Angamali). I have already told Fr that we will directly buy the required materials and give it to the affected family and won't transfer money to any individual or organization. I think we will allocate 50K to start with and then we will see based on the progress. Let me know what you think by posting your suggestion in the comments. Shyju will co-ordinate this.
