Words of Peace International (WOPI) now open

March 2, 2010

Last year, a new organization called Words of Peace Global (WOPG), an international charitable foundation in the Netherlands, was formed with the purpose of providing a single unified platform to support Maharaji in sharing his message of peace with the world.

As part of this unified platform, Words of Peace International (WOPI) is now open in the United States. WOPI is aligned with Words of Peace Global´s activities by providing a support system to share his message through live events, Words of Peace Broadcasts, Webcasts, the WOPG TV series, and a variety of other media materials developed by Words of Peace Global.  WOPI will also be the sponsor for all events with Maharaji held in the United States.

As a non-profit (501)(c)(3) charitable organization, WOPI allows US taxpayers to make tax-deductible contributions, and is the vehicle for US donors to support these activities.

The new structure of Words of Peace Global and Words of Peace International will simplify and revolutionize the support system for Maharaji to share his message with the world, as well as make available tools to engage in helping him to do so! Each of us has the opportunity to take part in launching this new organization.

TPRF Grant for Haiti

February 13, 2010

Thanks to the generosity of people all over the world, TPRF has made its second grant to help earthquake survivors in Haiti. This contribution of $50,000 will help address the serious lack of fresh, clean water that is putting thousands more at risk of life-threatening illness from contaminated water. Most at risk are children, who get dehydrated very easily. Specifically, it will help provide: bottled water for over 42,000 people in camps and medical centers; water purification kits for communities with no access to clean water; and rehydration fluids for over 125,000 children and some adults.


TPRF update on Haiti

February 2, 2010

TPRF is making a substantial difference for the earthquake victims in Haiti.

Here is a progress report from Josette Sheeran, the Executive Director of the World Food Programme (WFP), which is one of our partners in the field and the recipient of our first $50,000 contribution:

January 25, 2010 — “Words cannot describe the devastation that has been wrought on Haiti by the January 12 earthquake. Parts of the capital Port-au-Prince look worse than many war zones.  After two days in the city, I have seen the depth of grief and the massive needs the quake has left in its wake…

“WFP is pushing food supplies to the worst affected through five corridors. Our initial response – which was launched within 24 hours of the quake – has focused on targeting the most vulnerable, especially women and children. Our capacity to ramp up the operation is growing on a daily basis. On Friday, we delivered about two million meals – a significant increase from the 1.2 million meals distributed on Thursday. We are getting the job done, even if we wish we could do more, quicker… Read the rest of this entry »


Video Showing – Sunday Feb. 7

February 2, 2010

This coming Sunday, February 7, at 6:00 p.m., we’ll be watching one 30-minute DVD with segments from many events in 2009. We’ll also be viewing another short DVD — but I’m not sure what that will be yet! We’ll be meeting in the Community Room at EWEB.

This event is for those who have learned the techniques of Knowledge, or are preparing through The Keys — it’s not an introductory event.

If anyone wants to bring refreshments, they’re always appreciated!


Video Showing – Sunday, January 24 – 6:00 pm

January 23, 2010

There will be a video showing of Maharaji speaking at a recent event on Sunday, January 24 at 6:00 pm in the EWEB Community Room, 500 E. 4th Avenue. Everyone is welcome!


Virtual Cooperation in South America

By Birger Pohl, based on an interview with Maritza Espinoza

The EHDMI TeamA group of more than 230 volunteers in Latin America has developed the project “EHDMI” in order to make DVDs and written material about Prem Rawat’s message easily available in Spanish via the Internet for the first time. The volunteers behind the project say that the objective of EHDMI (Equipo Hispano Distribución Materiales Introductorios) is to increase the availability of the message in all Spanish-speaking countries, even in small villages and remote areas.

At the end of 2009, such easy access to Spanish materials had already become a much–appreciated resource all over South America for volunteers wanting to host local introductory events. Read the rest of this entry »


Haiti fundraising

January 20, 2010

Less than twenty-four hours after the Haiti earthquake, The Prem Rawat Foundation began an ongoing fundraising campaign to help the survivors. It has been heartwarming and inspiring to see the response from so many of you from all over the world. On Friday, January 15, the Foundation was able to make its first contribution — $50,000 — to help bring immediate food aid to people living in the streets and parks because they either lost their homes or are afraid to return to them.
