The Care for Cows Clinic is hosted on a friend's land in Raman Reti and we plan to purchase it to insure stability and make further improvements. The half-acre is valued at Rs. 2 crore / US $500,000.
The purchase of the land must be completed by Gaura Purnima, March 21, 2008. This purchase is absolutely crucial to ensure the continuity of the CFC project and the welfare of the cows who are cared for here.
Our Clinic accomodates around 40 orphaned calves and 60 injured, sick and disabled cows who require ongoing medical care or special assistance; many are elderly, infirm and weak.
Raman Reti is an easily accessible location for the Doctors and Caregivers who need to attend to patients in emergencies, or be on-call, around the clock. It is also close to town for immediate access to emergency cases, and for injured and sick street cows to be transported by local means.
With your help and support, CFC has established the only Laboratory in Vrindavan offering veterinary screening to the public, free of charge. From its humble beginnings, eight years ago, with minimal funding, it now provides food, shelter, and medical care and lifetime accommodation for abandoned cows, bulls, retired oxen and orphaned calves arriving from Vrindavan, Govardhan, Varshana and Mathura.
Raman Reti affords easy, safe access for donors and visitors as it is only a short walk or rickshaw ride from the ISKCON Temple. CFC funding relies heavily on donations in order to keep running and for this reason its current location ensures easy access for visitors.
As well as the anticipated purchase of the Raman Reti facility, CFC has also entered into negotiations for purchasing cheaper acreage across the Yamuna River. There we plan to host the healthy members of our herd for the rest of their lives. As this location is a more remote and less accessible, it is unsuitable for use as the CFC Clinic and regular visits.
We ask you to help us by offering a tax-deductible donation for the CFC Clinic Land Purchase. We hope we can count on you all to make a generous donation of $100 or more.
If $100 is beyond your means, please do not hesitate to contribute whatever you are able, as it will be most gratefully received. You may contact us directly by phone 0983 7090 024; or Send us an Email. Donate online via Pay Pal or credit card. If you are sending your donation in the form of a cheque, please make it payable to "Care for Cows". On behalf of Vrindavan's cows we thank you for your continued support.
