SmrAnk Libra Foundation hasn't added a story.
The Sikh population of Nova Scotia is growing as a result
Gurudwara Goers, we still have very few people with financial
resources who are willing and able to help the project.
In the last few years, the langar and diwan halls have become very small, resulting in a queue outside the gurdwara.
Mr. Mr. Pyara Singh Randhawa, who was directly involved in the previous construction and expansion in 1978 and 1998, took up the challenge and started the expansion of the Gurdwara building in 2018. Most excavation and parking lot grading, permits and designs completed in 2018 and 2019.. Actual construction began in early 2020 and we hope that our generous Sikh community around the world will help us meet the funding goals. The situation of Kovid 19 then presented another challenge.
Currently though:
1. Nearly 750,000 have been spent on construction, of which 250,000
are still being paid to contractors and suppliers who threaten to
demolish the Gurudwara building.
2. We have added several banks
for construction loans but so far three large banks have refused based
on last year’s income, which was limited and is currently zero as the
Gurudwara is closed. The current financial situation is adding to the
bank's
hesitation.
3. We contacted some wealthy Sikh
philanthropists, but so far there has been no positive response.
4. Guru Granth Saheb is resting in the house of the devotee
where access is limited.
5. Most items including palanquins are
stored in storage pods.
6. Construction stopped due to inability
to raise funds quickly to pay the workers
7. If the roof is not
tightened in the next few months, there is a risk of damage to the
completed construction so far before the weather cools down.
In this situation we are looking to our Guru Roop and Danshur Sikh Sangat to come to our rescue and help raise the necessary funds so that we can complete the construction and return the Parkashman Guru Granth Sahib home in all its glory.
Please also donate a small amount.
