M.A.Center donates $1M to Bush-Clinton Katrina Fund
www.ammachi.org/amma/in-t...index.html

8 December 2005 -- New York, New York, USA

The Mata Amritanandamayi Center in the United States handed over $1 million to the Bush-Clinton Katrina Fund to aid hurricane recovery efforts in the Gulf Coast area of the United States.

Swami Ramakrishnananda and Brahmachari Dayamrita Chaitanya--representing the M.A. Center--met former President Clinton on 8th December 2005 in his offices in Harlem, New York City, where they handed over the check.

The donation is one of the largest the Fund--which is run by former U.S. presidents George Bush, Senior and Bill Clinton--has received from a non-government organization to date.

The Gulf Coast region was devastated by Hurricane Katrina in September 2005. M.A. Center and its affiliates actively participated in bringing relief to Katrina survivors in the weeks immediately following the disaster. They provided food, clothing, school supplies and gave emotional support.
