HELP RAISE 13.000€ FOR 2014

Dear vaisnavas, I would like to thank from the depth of my heart all the many devotees that contributed to the 2013 event. We managed to collect practically 8000€ which tremendously helped the festival. In fact, Krsna so kindly arranged that we finish once more with a positive figure, this time of around 1000€, which will be used as base for the next year's event.

My vision and desire for 2014 is to continue to have the majority of the festival sponsored (prasadam and all costs for organizing the festival) as the 2012–2013 Mellows were concluded in a positive way. By rough estimation this would mean that we would require to collect over 4000€ for prasadam bhoga so that devotees can eat for free (SPONSORED since the 1st of February), 700€ for the heating of the tent, + 1000€ for nice plates,cups, bowls and spoons, and another +7000€ for all the costs that would ensue from the organizational side. The details are provided here above.

This means that an average +6000€ has to be raised to provide 10×500 meals and another +7000€ to ensure a festival of great quality with wonderful kirtaniyas and senior devotee guests from around the world.

I hope that this will become possible with the help of all those who can. Even a euro makes a difference… So please donate for an even better and more memorable festival in 2014!
