Upcoming Charity actions

Every penny of Donations Count

It has always been the aim of the Trust to spend every penny that is collected directly on the disaster victims themselves, and not to be swallowed up, even partially, by administration or bureaucracy.

Therefore, even until today, members have gone on their own expense to do the charitable work. May Waheguru bless their efforts. We hope you will help support those people in the world who are less fortunate than yourselves.
Every penny of your donations counts.
