THE Dharm Shala is celebrating 97 years as a ‘Home of Benevolence for all Races’, and will on Christmas Day hold a special luncheon for the elderly residents of the facility and others.

The luncheon will be held at the 140 King Edward & Sussex Streets, Albouystown, Georgetown, premises and will begin at 11:00 hrs.
Administrators, Kella and Pamela Ramsaroop, ushered in the festive season for the Children of the Dharm Shala, holding a 97th Anniversary Christmas Party at the Dharm Shala Compound, Fort Canje, Berbice, two Saturdays ago.

The party, according to Kella, was a huge success and 180 children from Angoy’s Avenue, New Amsterdam, were entertained.
A Christmas tree was lit for the occasion. There were lots to eat and drink with delectable goodies served at the party as well as ‘take away’ snack bags.

And Santa Claus brought much happiness to the children as he distributed toys, wrapped up in gift packages.

The management and staff of the Dharm Shala wishes to extend sincere greetings for a Happy Christmas to one and all and extend greeting for a bright and prosperous New Year!
