Sculptor Jim McNalis just sent me the following information for those who would like to help the people of Burma.

In an effort to get much needed aid to the survivors of Cyclone Nargis in Myanmar (Burma) the Dhammaloka Buddhist Society (DBS) of Miramar, Florida, has opened a Burma Cyclone Relief Fund and is now accepting donations. The DBS is a non-profit organization and all donations are tax deductible. Please make checks payable to DBS. Write “Cyclone Nargis” in the memo section of the check. You will receive a receipt for your donation by return mail. Send all donations to:

Dhammaloka Buddhist Society, Inc.
2500 Acapulco Drive
Miramar, FL 33023

Also, Jim noted that a prayer service will be held for the people of Burma on Sunday, June 1, from 5-8 pm at the Torch of Friendship (next to Bayside Marketplace) in downtown Miami.
