This last year has seen Khalsa Aid grow and increase the
Seva we are carrying out across the globe, this has all been
possible thanks to the support of the Sangat, so from all of
us at Khalsa Aid we thank you.
In this issue we update you on all the recent missions and also bring you the latest Khalsa Aid news and report on the fundraising by our brilliant volunteers and supporters.

The Horn of Africa is suffering from severe Drought. Upto 10m lives are at risk from starvation. Khalsa Aid is launching a major relief program to help the children in Ethiopia. We will be working with local organisations to assist with the feeding centres. We are asking all of you to get involved and reach out to the local Gurdwaras and start the fundraising but more importantly come forward and volunteer.
Message from Libya Camp

Our Amazing Volunteers
Water4Haiti

This water pump has been installed in an orphanage in Leoganne, Haiti. This orphanage, New Vision has 38 children. Khalsa Aid has started work on installing water pumps in 3 more orphanages. This Water4Haiti program will be extended to other needy orphanages.
Haiti Orphans

The most shocking news from Haiti is the number of orphanages which are struggling to provide for the many orphans. Its also true that there are few individuals who are trying to take advantage of foreign aid organisations by setting up fake orphanages.
Khalsa Aid was very fortunate to have close links with the Canadian military who informed us about the fake 'Black Listed' orphanages.
Establishment of Khalsa Aid (USA)
We are pleased to announce the creation of the long-awaited Khalsa Aid (USA) who will be working as the logistical arm for the Khalsa Aid (UK) Head Office. The Khalsa Aid (USA) team believe that there is a huge interest from the Sangat in the USA to participate and provide logistical support and hands-on assistance in the field and not just provide monetary assistance. Khalsa Aid (USA) draws together the diverse talents of business people from various backgrounds with the passion for serving humanity. This is a very exciting time for the Sikh community worldwide, we hope the North American community supports Khalsa Aid (USA) just as much as the UK community has supported Khalsa Aid (UK).
PURE - Punjab Underprivileged Rural Empowerment
These children are sponsored by Khalsa Aid, they are encouraged to attend school and also Gurbani classes twice a week.The children come from very underprivileged backgrounds and areas of severe depravation.There is ever present threat of the children being lured into the dark world of drugs and amphetamines by individual dealers and various cults.
Khalsa Aid aims to engage whole families of these children in drugs awareness programmes as there is wide spread drugs and alcohol abuse in rural Panjab.There will be huge emphasis on providing stability within the family unit,which includes Khalsa Aid providing the family medical care.We are able to provide the children with education etc due to the generosty of the Sangat, so please continue to donate so that we may contiune to provide.
The choice is yours to make, support these children or see them become the next generation of illiterate drug addicts!!
Recognise all of the human race as one.

We can think of the great humanitarian enterprises which bring relief to those who are suffering - the Red Cross, the Red Crescent or Islamic Relief, CAFOD and Christian Aid, Hindu Aid and SEWA International, World Jewish Relief and Khalsa Aid - all the charities which draw inspiration from the teachings of the different faiths.
