INDIA<br />
Charitable<br />
Donations as<br />
Christmas<br />
Presents?<br />
With Christmas soon upon us,<br />
how do we make the holiday<br />
season less about overindulgence<br />
and more about goodwill and<br />
kindness to all. Charitable gifts<br />
help to demonstrate to our<br />
younger generation that real<br />
happiness does not come from<br />
having things, but from giving and<br />
sharing, and not from being<br />
afraid of people across the city,<br />
or country, or planet. In honour<br />
of your loved one’s next birthday,<br />
anniversary or Christmas, why<br />
not make a donation to charity in<br />
the name of your intended<br />
recipient?<br />
<strong>Namaskar</strong> regularly supports<br />
Yogi Yum Yums, a small social<br />
enterprise based in Rishikesk,<br />
India. They make sweets and<br />
treats without white sugar or<br />
white flour. They make them<br />
fresh, with simple ingredients, no<br />
added chemicals and as natural or<br />
organic as possible. The sweets<br />
are sold at ashrams around town.<br />
All Yogi Yum Yums profits go<br />
towards the secondary and<br />
tertiary education of orphans and<br />
underprivileged children. Yogi<br />
Yum Yums will send a gift<br />
appreciation post card to your<br />
honouree advising them of your<br />
generous gift.<br />
