February 17, 2019Dear Dharma Friends, Members and Supporters of Jam Tse Cho Ling Tibetan Buddhist Temple, Calgary, On Saturday, May 4th, 2019, JTCL Temple will host the 2nd Annual Fundraising Extravaganza, at the Thorncliffe Greenview Association Centre. This evening is dedicated to raising sufficient funds required to fulfill our goals of buying or building a new JTCL Tibetan Buddhist Temple for Calgary. Over the past few years, our profound JTCL Temple founder, H.E. Tulku Neten Rinpoche and our exemplary resident teacher Geshe Trinly la have worked very diligently to offer authentic Dharma teachings to Buddhist practitioners in Calgary. Their vision for a local Dharma Centre has resulted in establishing a strong, growing Tibetan Buddhist spiritual community. All students agree that they have greatly benefitted from receiving these profound teachings and techniques for attaining a more content and peaceful way of living in our fast-paced society. At this time, the current Temple space (a residential house, generously donated) has become too small due to the increasing number of programs and students who are eager to learn and practice the Dharma. The JTCL Board and fundraising committee asks that you please take a few moments to learn about our upcoming 2nd Annual Fundraising Evening of lively entertainment, fashion show, cultural singers, Tibetan and Vietnamese dinner, silent auction and many other surprises to keep you fully engaged and entertained all evening. There will also be opportunities throughout the evening to visit with H.E. Tulku Neten Rinpoche, as our honored guest!Please consider participating in our annual fundraising initiative by donating to our Silent Auction. All donations are greatly appreciated. Your donation can be something as simple as a NEW item that you have at home or purchased, or a gift certificate from a business, service (yoga class, massage, spa), restaurant, theatre, leisure/recreation facility, (Zoo, Calloway Park, hockey tickets), travel agent (two-nights in Banff), or an extravagant weekend at your time-share resort!A “themed” gift basket (or items grouped together) is an easy, attractive and fun way to donate to our silent auction, as well as highlighting and visibly promoting your business. Gift Basket themes and/or bundled items might include gift certificates, tickets, and/or various NEW objects relevant to, for example: the garden, food, sports memorabilia, sports events, art work, Dharma objects (please, NO images of Buddhas), spa/bath items, theatrical events, children interests, books, music, houseware, home decor, …, all very much appreciated and attractive to silent auction bidders. Our event is expected to attract approximately 700 supporters and participating businesses. Opportunities are available for business logo/graphics to be displayed at the event and on the JTCL websites. A donation form for the silent auction items is attached. Simply fill it out, then call or email us and we’ll handle pick-up/drop-off of items donated, and all other details. Thank you for your consideration and participation. Your generosity will help fund a new temple whereby many more people can benefit from Dharma teachings, for years to come.
