My personal thanks to each of you who has already contributed to the Extending Kindness Appeal. So far, 604 donors have contributed $104,976 including matching funds.

Help us reach the goal of raising $150,000! Matching funds are still available. There’s so much more we can do and accomplish.

This week’s video is called “A Culture of Peace.” It is an extraordinary story of how the Peace Education Program helped bring together police officials, school administrators, teachers and students to reduce the culture of violence that has been the norm in Cusco, Peru. It is remarkable when a group of police, called Police Protectors, work to help students instead of punishing them, and students begin to turn to them for help. And it’s not a fairy tale, but one that inspires hope! 

You can view the progress of the appeal and watch all the videos as they are released here.

Please take this opportunity to join this effort. I can’t think of a time when the work of Prem Rawat and his Foundation has been more important as we watch a culture of dissension spreading across the world.

With heartfelt appreciation,

Daya Rawat

President, The Prem Rawat Foundation
