We’ve embedded this video to give news of a potential major expansion of Krishna Consciousness in Utah.  We are under contract to purchase this 3.74 acre property. We are now trying for the loan approval. Located near downtown and the University of Utah, it is ideally situated at 965 East 3370 South. It has been used as a school by the Seventh Day Adventists (who are mostly vegetarian) and comprises 12,700 square feet of building, including a spacious gym with stage, five classrooms, kitchen, offices, and a large free standing building for a gift shop.

Considering the success of the mission in the past 20 years in Utah Valley, wherein 88% of the population is Mormon, we feel confident in predicting more success at this Salt Lake City center – bigger festivals (imagine a Holi on nearly 4 acres land here!), more devotees to join, education for the youth, Sunday school, urban summer camps, considerable gift store income, & the possibilities go on & on.

The property is well priced at $ 1,185,000. We request our well wishers and friends to partner with us in this great project by financially assisting in one or more of the following ways. Our proposed downpayment based on cash on hand is $ 200,000. The more we can add to this, the stronger will be the loan application. We believe without additional funds it is not certain we shall get the loan.

•Donate outright
•Become a guarantor for part of the loan amount ($100,000 & up).
•Give an interest free loan
•Loan the temple funds at lower than bank rate. (Bank rate will likely be 6.5% or 7 %, adjustable after 5 years).

Any of the above generous options on your part will increase the chances of the loan approval, and, if we do get it, save thousands of dollars in interest.
