Mustard Seeds Library is now collecting specific items for the people in Nandigram to take to a relief center that Mahasweti Devi has set up.
-------------------
An email from a very reliable source writes the following:
I managed to speak directly to Mahasweta di this morning and here is what she has asked me to circulate:
1. Her address IS being used as a collection and despatch centre for relief materials for Nandigram victims. For those who do not have it, it is:
W 2C, 12/3 Phase 2, Golf Green, Kolkata 700095.
Children's warm clothes, new (not secondhand) lungis and dhotis for men. sturdy saris in wearable condition, rice and dal are welcome.
2. If money is being donated, it should be sent to Account no. 24941, Canara Bank, Sealdah branch.
3. Mahasweta di has been focusing on working with a doctors' group at Nandigram. The contact person if anyone wishes to help with the health centre there in any way is Dr Devapriya Mallick, 9830510911.
------------------------
I encourage everyone to bring their donations to the library, and we will take the load to the drop-off point on Monday or Tuesday of next week.
Although we mustard seeds are small, we can make big efforts together!
