MOMO FUNDRAISER PARTY IN SEATTLE, WA

The Nalandabodhi Seattle Sangha along with many of our Bhutanese and Tibetan friends made momos (dumplings) and delicious foods.  It was an event of friendship, good food, and music played by our own sangha members. $2,000 was greatfully received in donations!

Just like the fundraising effort in Vancouver, BC, the momo party was an effort to raise funds to match a challenge grant of $10,000 USD presented by the Raynier Institute & Foundation. We would like to acknowledge the The Raynier Institute & Foundation for last year's grant of $15,000 toward the building and establishment the medical clinic for Rumtek Monastery and community.  Based on the success of the start of the Tso Jey Clinic in Rumtek in 2010 and 2011, The Raynier Institute and Foundation is, again, offering $10,000 with another $10,000 matching amount based on our efforts to raise $10,000.   
 
We so happy to report that we have raised over $5,110 toward our $10,000 goal! Thank you all for your great generosity.
