REQUEST

As you all know Gram Seva Sangh is sustaining its efforts through couple of volunteers and from friends monthly small contributions. This support is immeasurable for us.

On the one hand, the contribution from our member subscribers is thinning during these trying times.  To keep our campaign going especially when a lot of anti-people legislations and moves are being rushed through by the government at state and centre. We would like to broad base our supporters so the regular contributors are not overburdened.

On the other hand, considering the current crisis, we believe this is the time we need to step up the efforts to work with many organizations. To do that, we need to first sustain current full time and part time volunteers and a few more volunteers to increase the efforts. 

More of your small financial contributions will make this happen, so we thought requesting these below things,

  •  – Subscribe to become a monthly donor with your small monthly financial contributions
  •  – Request your friends and interested folks to subscribe to contribute monthly
  •  – We also request already contributing Subscribers who can afford to increase a small extent
