Arun Ganeshan's inspiring collection of already $1000 by door to door knocking

Hear story from one OVBI member Arun Ganeshan from New Jersey....
The Princeton NJ chapter for OVBI reached out door to door campaigning for help. I collected $1000 in the last 2 days of door to door campaign in the Indian community in Princeton. I feel very blessed to be a part of this massive campaign that OVBI is doing to assist the disaster relief work. Still 17,000 stranded and lot of people without food.
I was first hesitant and people thinking twice but everyone got involved for the cause. They contributed $10 - $50 and also expressed the anguish for the suffering people have to undergo because of this disaster. They are questioning why local authorities could not handle it more effectively.
Just want to share as a part of motivating other people to do the same. Kudos to all of you to initiate the conversation and get it rolling
God bless!
