Vihara requests only financial donations

---

Thanks given for the support of ChiswickW4.com members

The appeal co-ordinators at the London Buddhist Vihara say they no longer require non-financial donations for their appeal. The response from the local community was so overwhelming that a huge backlog of donations remains to be processed.

Pat Smith on behalf of the Vihara said, " a sincere thank you is given to members of ChiswickW4.com for their kind and generous support."

They no longer able to accept donations of clothes, medicines etc, and are now only accepting financial contributions to the appeal.  They ask that the public continue to support the appeal.

The co-ordinators ask that people drop by when they have time to spare to help with the relief work at the Vihara. People are also ringing or dropping by to offer to take small parcels out to Sri Lanka if they are flying out, and this is also a huge help.
