Dear Friends of CTR

It is amazing how time does fly and what is more amazing is that, once again, it is time to invite all our friends and family to our 8th CTR Dinner Dance. Yes, we have been doing this for 8 years now and, I attach a flyer with all relevant information for you to circulate to your friends and others who might be interested to attend. I cannot stress more strongly how much the poor in India need your support.

It is a deep and abiding concern to us that so many people live in abject poverty in third world nations across the globe. This is something that we believe should be of concern to us all who are lucky enough to be living in the wonderful conditions (though we complain!) that we do. Even to breathe the air in some of these places is toxic and does daily damage to people living there. I could go on.

Much good work has already been done and now our initiative in Melbourne needs to rally to raise much needed funds so that our good work can continue into the future. Do log onto our website (above) to access the work CTR is doing worldwide.

We can continue to do this only if we come together and invite our friends to this evening of fun and entertainment which goes a long way towards helping the desperately poor in India. There is a lot of good work being done by a very few people across the globe. We need your support. Tickets are on sale now and they can be obtained by ringing any person on the flier.

Should you be unable to attend our dinner dance but wish to send a donation, please address your cheque to Calcutta Tiljallah Relief and post it to the above address in Melbourne. Or, our bank account no is: Westpac, BSB: 033-106 A/C. NO: 183707, Address A/c: Calcutta Tiljallah Relief. Please append your name for identification purposes and so we can send a receipt.

Alternatively, we run a silent auction and a raffle at the dance so your donation doesn’t only have to be in money. Kind is fine. Ring any us on the flier and we would be happy to arrange to pick up whatever you wish to donate for the above events.

I cannot urge you more strongly to attend because you will have a good night. People return year after year as a test to its success. If you cannot attend, please try and spread the word about this charitable event and encourage others to attend. Thank you for caring.

Yours sincerely,

MARILYN GOSS
