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!

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.
