A wonderful opportunity

By Badrinarayan dasa

Hare Krishna. I am writing to announce a wonderful opportunity. By the efforts of Romapada Maharaja (who has arranged the donor / funding) we can offer a 90% three year scholarship to Bhaktivedanta College at Radhadesa. (The 90% is so that the candidate has to make a little effort on their own—this will help us narrow the field of candidates to those with the most drive and competency). The donor wants the candidate to serve in a USA. (We will try to expand the program for candidates from the rest of the world in the future). 

I have attached the application form. Please take a minute or two to look it over. We are looking for candidates who after they graduate from BV College will then join a six month mentorship program in the USA. The devotee on this scholarship will travel to several temples for hands-on-learning. For example, he or she will spend time in LA learning how to put on a big festival like Ratha Yatra, spend time in New Vrindaban learning fund-raising from Kuladri prabhu—you get the idea.

After completing the mentorship program, the candidate promises to offer two years volunteer service in a USA temple (to be selected by the mutual consent of the candidate and the NA GBC). As mentioned, the donor wants the candidate to serve in a USA temple so the candidates applying must have US citizenship and the desire to serve in ISKCON USA.
 
Now we need your help. Please think of whom you know who might be interested in this program and then get this application form into their hands. Any questions, let me know.
 
Your servant,
