Dear Supporter:

My name is Rajdeep Singh, and I serve as the Sikh Coalition’s Director of Law and Policy in Washington, DC. Thanks to your support, I have completed one full and amazing year working at the Sikh Coalition to amplify your voices at the highest levels of American government.

I write first to say thank you. Your support resulted in major progress in the cause of creating Sikh awareness.

I also write to ask an important question: How much is Sikh awareness worth to you?

In 2010, thanks to your support, the U.S. Army recruited and accepted an enlisted Sikh soldier for the first time in a generation.

In 2010, thanks to your support, the Sikh Coalition gave live testimony before a Congressional subcommittee on the issue of airport profiling.

In 2010, thanks to your support, I attended more than 40 meetings with Congressional staffers and made over 200 distinct contacts to Congressional offices to create awareness about Sikh American civil rights issues.

Can you give $100 to help us continue meeting Congressional staffers in 2011?

Can you give $500 to ensure that Sikh voices are heard at the White House and executive agencies, such as the Justice Department?

Can you give $1000 to help us make sure the federal government does not make decisions without considering the Sikh American perspective?

PS – If you and your children would like to join us for visits to Congressional offices in 2011, please feel free to send me an email at rajdeep@sikhcoalition.org. In the meantime, have a look at our recent Washington Post essay about President Obama and the Sikhs.
