AMO 1.3       Amoration Holiday Edition

In this update:
*OPEN STUDIO ART SALE  DECEMBER 12th*
Upcoming events, performances and media projects

Happy Holidays and a very big thank you for your support of these creative pursuits.  2004 has been an
amazing year and the best is yet to come!  Our Amoration bridgebuilding team is EXCITED and we are pouring everything we've got into our upcoming work in Bihar, India.  12 amazing volunteers have stepped forward from three continents to join us for this groundbreaking experiment in creative compassion.

Now comes the best part:  bringing you along for the journey!
We depart in 9 weeks and must raise $60,000 by January 15th to make this schoolbuilding project possible.  This includes all travel expenses for our volunteer team, materials to build and furnish the school, gifts to sustain the school for one year and production materials to document the entire process.

EVERY GIFT HELPS MAKE THIS PARTNERSHIP A REALITY!
To offer a gift via paypal, credit card or check visit
www.ihcenter.org/groups/amoration.html

Project partners will be recognized with a special presentation at the new school in Bihar and on the DVD/documentary.  Copies of the DVD and special acknowledgments will also be given to those who choose
to become Partner Producers with a gift of $500 or more.  The final documentary is designed for television broadcast as a model for grassroots community building -- when was the last time you saw a reality show that had this much heart?

OPEN STUDIO ART SALE  DECEMBER 12th
We are opening our new studios to you for a special one-day holiday gift
event!  Artwork, photographs, jewelry and other gifts will be on sale to
benefit the Bridge to Bodhgaya.  Come visit our studio and meet our
staff at 3303 Pico Blvd in Santa Monica, behind the UnUrban Cafe and across from Trader Joes.

DONATIONS OF TALENT, TIME AND RESOURCES ARE ALSO WELCOME!
"Privilege-Sharing", our grassroots partners in India, has sent the
following list of items to help furnish the school and care for the
communities where they work.  We encourage all classrooms, civic groups
and communities of faith to host local donation drives and drop off
donated items to our studio in Santa Monica by January 15th.

List of requested items:
child art supplies
pens, pencils, erasers, sharpeners
little bags to hold these supplies
educational toys and tools (flash cards, paperback books)
simple board games (small and light is best)
a globe
a map of the world
first aid supplies
vitamins and basic medicines (unopened only please)
toothbrushes
pipecleaners and colorful small toys
inflatable balls or small rubber balls
backpacks in new or good condition
computers:  macintosh is best
software and accessories

We regret that shipping heavy items is not economically viable
(unless you can help secure travel and shipping arrangements!).  Food,
clothing, blankets, soap and other sundries will be purchased in India for
the community.

Thank you all so much for your continued support of Amoration's
work around the world.  We are thrilled to share with you in creating
a culture of conscious compassion!
