Dear John,

In just 24 days, more than 800 friends from near and far will enter the newly completed Temple of Light for the first time.

There is a beautiful story unfolding that many of you may not be aware of, and yet you are very much a part of. It is something we don’t typically talk much about, except in the fundraising department. There is something about Ananda’s Temple of Light’s fundraising results that never happens, and that no other place, that I am aware of, has ever accomplished. It is worth mentioning here because you all have contributed to this being a reality.

A MIRACLE IS HAPPENING HERE AT ANANDA VILLAGE.

Fundraisers say that unless you have reached 50% of your goal BEFORE launching a public capital campaign, you will never reach your goal.  It’s a science, a known fact, and taught. But guess what?

Our goal of raising $3.85 million dollars for building the Temple of Light is a mere $387,000 away from receiving a "Paid in Full" stamp.

We broke ground on the Temple of Light without having close to what the experts say we should have had. Today we are 10% away from doing what the experts say cannot be done.

We invite you to take part in this miracle by joining us in donating TODAY, either the chair campaign or with any gift you feel inspired to give.

BE THE MIRACLE.
