KANNADA
SANGHA PATRON PROGRAM DETAILS
Thanks to all our patrons!!
Its important to have many
more patrons come forward to sustain our culture in this
land. Some cultures just die away after one or two
generations unless there is a strong support base.
Sometimes it pains to see that lot of second and third
generation kannadigas dont know how to speak kannada. In
order to come up with programs to help sustain this
great culture/language we need a strong cash
position.
Austin
Kannada Sanghada Sadasyare,
We are very happy to announce the new "Kannada
Sangha Patron" program.
This program gives you
an opportunity as individuals to patronize Kannada
language and culture in Austin. This is an excellent
opportunity for you to show the community that you and
your family care about Kannada language, art and
culture. (Kereya Neeranu Kerege chelli)
Consider this an opportunity to help your
community to promote Kannada culture in Austin. In a
year that is characterized by economic uncertainty and
uncertain advertisement revenue, your support for this
program is greatly appreciated.
Benefits:
- As a Patron you get to display an appropriate
photo (family) of your choice and 20 words in the
Sampige magazine printed 2 times a year.
- 1 Year Membership included.
- 2 AKS T-shirts worth $8 each.
- Two free tickets for Ugaadi and Diwali events for
that year(Movie tickets not included).
You can become a Kannada Sangha Patron
with a donation of $150.
