2024 BALASTHAPANA KUMBABISHEKAM &

MAHA KUMBABISHEKAM

 

FUNDRAISING APPEAL

Dear Devotees,

With almighty Lord Ganesha’s blessings, The Board of Trustees of the Maha Ganapathy Society of Alberta is planning a Balasthabanam (March 18-20), and the Maha Kumbabishekam (July 4-12). This requires visiting priests to perform the ceremonies, artisans completing the necessary repair to the Vimaanam structure (Tower above the Moolasthanam) along with some minor repairs to the shrines and temple interior. A Mandalabishekam following the Kumbabishekam will be held between July 12 and August 25.

The above tasks require a large expenditure (budgeted at $300,000) and the Board of Trustees hereby humbly appeal to the devotees of the Maha Ganapathy Temple to financially contribute to the Maha Kumbabishekam related activities and renovations. For donations over $20, a tax receipt will be issued in February 2025. 

Those who wish to donate, please kindly contact the temple office or donate by e-transfer
using the email: mgsafinance@gmail.com.
