Donating to New York Fire Fighters
by Ravinder Shira

Firstly, no amount of money is going to bring back those heroes who lost their lives for the sake of others. These brave fire fighters took a great risk to save lives and unfortunately some of them lost their own lives. Their families will get payoffs but whatever the amount their lives were more precious. The fire fighters were working in the mode of goodness in saving lives.

Secondly, it is the thought that counts. So even if their families get a small donation from Hare Krishna to them it would mean a lot for at least they would acknowledge the Hare Krishna movement and who knows when they next pass the temple they would be inclined to go in and thus learn more about Krishna Consciousness.
