Babaji's walk for the NHS

£10,000 donated to the Royal Free Charity  on the Auspicious day of Guru Poornima

On the auspicious day of Guru Poornima and the 72nd birthday of the UK National Health Service (05-07-2020), the Om Saravanabhava Seva Trust donated £10,000 to the Royal Free Charity. These funds were raised through our beloved Babaji's walk for the NHS, which took place on Sunday 28th June 2020. The cheque was presented to Carla Bispham, the Community Fundraiser for Barnet Hospital, Royal Free NHS Trust by our beloved Babaji. 

 

This major donation will support children with cancer being treated at Barnet Hospital. We are all honoured and privileged to have Babaji with us in the UK in these difficult times and his continuous prayers for world peace and harmony has saved a lot of human suffering around the world. 

We would like to say a big thank you to everyone who generously supported this great cause.

HAB Chief Executive, Joe Lee, expressed their sincere thanks to the Sharavana Baba Community Centre.

 

"Many of our clients have no recourse to public funds and others are on minimum benefits. Without help from the community we would not be able to provide them with the basic essentials of food and toiletries."
