Thank you for helping Charity Drive

Tamil Manram whole heartedly thanks all the patrons, community members, and Tamil Manram committee in making this year's charity drive a grand success.

Thanks to your generous donations, we were able to fill five large barrels with items from the wish list of Tri-City Homeless Coalition.

Needless to say that Tricity Homeless Coalition is very happy and thankful to receive this donation. We are very happy to play a small role in bringing cheer to the needy around Tamil New Year's day.
