September 5th, 2009 - A San Diego based puja group sponsored the Save A Mother organization for their recent Annual Fundraising 5k Walk, which took place at Torrey Pines State Reserve. This group began in 2001 by four ladies, Uma Bommakanty, Annapurna Yenamandra, Prabha Pyati and Anasuya Peesapati. They meet on a monthly basis to recite the lalitha sahasranam to goddess Lalita Devi, a Divine mother who is also symbolized as feminine power, Shakti. Their organization is named LSNP (Lalita Sahasra Nama Pathanam). This year they introduced an annual charity walk in addition to their monthly pujas as a way to encourage team building, well being and support for charity organizations. They chose to contribute to Save A Mother for their very first walk because it’s an organization that values the life of a mother. contributed by Ashvini Bommakanty |
