The Sikh Youth Project has decided to sponsor 5 people to go to the Life Changing Baru Sahib Camp 2009.

The Sikh Youth Project will pay the full £600 for all of the 5 chosen people.

Please write to us at sikhyouthproject@hotmail.com and explain in less 250 words why we should give you the opportunity to go for free?

Deadline this weekend Sunday 28th June 2009

Ideally we would like to sponsor people who have no base in Sikhi, or have not been to a Sikhi camp before.

If you do know of anyone who, you think, deserves a second chance at life, please email sikhyouthproject@hotmail.com

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity, please do not just let it pass you by.

What Gurmat Sangeet said.

Inspiring Seva - Baru Sahib are a Beacon in the Panth when it comes to seva for youth - we should all emulate their efforts - i.e. teaching and promoting real Sikh traditions like Kirtan in Sirlek hukum, Gurus Tanti Saaj, Santhiya, Rehni-Behni, fitness etc...

Great stuff.

Out of interest how much does it cost to sponsor a child?

Sikh Youth Project are paying the £600 fee to take a person from the UK on the camp.

We are willing to pay for 5 people to go for free.

We are not sponsoring an indian child to get educated at Baru Sahib.

I hope this answered your question and cleared any confusion.
