Winning the Goal
Shoghi Effendi has written that, "...our contributions to the Faith are the surest way of lifting once and for all time the burden of hunger and misery from mankind, for it is only through the System of Baha'u'llah - Divine in origin - that the world can be gotten on its feet and want, fear, hunger, war, etc., be eliminated."* With the increase in material support for the national upsurge in the teaching work, and to fill the need for the corresponding increase in administrative services, particularly at the regional and cluster levels, the demands on the National Fund to support the building of that System are similarly increasing. Now is the time to place your "share on the altar of Baha'i sacrifice...Now if ever is the time to tread the path which the dawn-breakers of a previous age have so magnificently trodden."**
We can all play our part in overcoming the $10.4 million deficit, winning the $25 million, and help build His System.
- Contributions can be sent to National Baha'i Fund, 1233 Central St., Evanston, IL 60201.
- Enroll in the Automatic Contribution System by filling out this form.
- Host a fundraiser in your community.
- Pray that the work of the Faith is amply supported both spiritually and materially so that the work of the current Five Year Plan can bring Baha'u'llah's Message to every heart.
