Campbell River Fundraising - June 17, 2008

On June 17, 2008, two Burmese women, San San Maw and Mitar, with the assistance of community members, held a fundraising (food fair) in Campbell River, BC, and raised over C$1500, of which $700 will be donated to the venerable Sayadaw U Sanda on July 13, 2008 to repair the Thirimingala Tawya monastery in Kyauk Ye Dwin, Mayangone Township, Yangon, which was destroyed by Cylone Nargis on May 2, 2008. The balance of the funds from the food fair will be donated to the cyclone victims when Mitar visits Burma in the next few months.

Good Bless the citizens of Campbell River, BC!!
