ACTION ALERT: MIHIR MEGHANI NEEDS YOU
TO DO YOUR PART!




Hello and Namaste!

I have been personally forwarding you our e-newsletters which cover the
work and achievements of the Hindu American Foundation (HAF).   With
thousands of contacts made over the years, this task of keeping all of you
informed has often times taken hours -- time which I find myself more and
more in need of to focus on the ever-growing work of HAF.  So I am humbly
requesting that you join HAF's email list or become a member or donor of
HAF at http://www.hafsite.org/join. If you are already on our mailing list
or a member, please forward this to others. After this email, I will send
one more, final email reminder, after which, I will no longer be able to
keep you individually up to date on HAF's latest.

You can view two interesting HAF produced videos at www.HAFsite.org, "A
Glimpse into the World of HAF" and "Namaste - Simply Divine" to give you an
taste of the  level of professionalism of HAF's advocacy work.  HAF is also
active on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.  Of note:

   * HAF is an advocacy organization for two million Hindu Americans.  At
HAF, we:
         o Educate others about Hinduism, including leaders in
government, academia, media, and interfaith and the public at large
         o Speak up about issues affecting the Hindu American community
such as religious liberty, the portrayal of Hinduism, hate speech, hate
crimes, and human rights
         o Build and leverage relationships with those leaders so we can
promote the Hindu American community's agenda
   * HAF is led by Hindu American professionals, dedicated full time
staff, many selfless volunteers, and thousands of supporters across the
world.
   * Since HAF's 2003 so we can fulfill this mission, together! Please
visit our website, http://www.hafsite.org, to find out more and do not
hesitate to contact me should you have further questions. I do hope I can
count on your support.founding, our remarkable story has been about HAF
growing into a stronger and more effective voice for Hindus, personal
fulfillment (karma yoga), seva (social service) and achievements that all
Hindus can be proud of

From the age of nine, I was inspired by Swami Vivekananda's call to action
to perform social service (seva). Participating in Hindu activities from
that age, I sensed a major void in Hindu activities in America - there was
no credible and effective Hindu American voice. In 2003, I joined with
several other dedicated, humble, professional, and effective young leaders
on a mission to fulfill that need and to make sure the Hindu American voice
was heard by people who shape public opinion and influence the laws that
govern us.

I hope that you too will join HAF so we can fulfill this mission,
together!  Please visit our website, http://www.hafsite.org, to find out
more and do not hesitate to contact me should you have further questions. I
do hope I can count on your support.

Respectfully,
Mihir Meghani, M.D.
Co-Founder and Board Member, Hindu American Foundation (HAF)
