Supporting EMC

So I've gotten some emails re: how to support EMC and the work they are doing. Beyond the Horizons is a nonprofit that was set up a few years ago to support their programs, more specifically their school but also other projects that EMC has. Kris, the current school administrator of the Emmanuel School is from Maryland, and I believe his friends had helped set this nonprofit up so that folks like us can support the children that are part of their programs. Kris is Aunty Premila's son-in-law, husband of Kavi (who I believe was mentioned in the blog). So the two of them and their precious and beautiful little girl moved to Calcutta after the passing of their father, the founder of EMC and Calcutta Samaritans, to be part of EMC's work. Indeed an amazing family! The website for that is: http://www.beyondthehorizon.us/Home.asp

You can also support the microfinance work that EMC is providing to their communities. Prana International was set up by Amit and Jill who live in the Philadelphia area. They are the ones who introduced me to EMC 2 years ago right before my first trip to India. Amit grew up in Calcutta and is very familiar with EMC as he grew up with folks from EMC and served there as well.

You can read up on Prana and more on the microfinance work being done with EMC, and support them financially as well here: http://www.pranainternational.org/support.html

If any problems, just let me know and I can reach out to the appropriate folks. THANKS!
