Berkeley, CA 94710

Seva builds Partnerships to respond to locally Defined Problems with Culturally Sustainable Solutions.

In a vision that inspires Seva's work in the world, health is not simplye the elimination of disease; it is a condition of wholeness and freedom of being. Seva believes that international service requires a consciousness of the interplay of both economic and political forces as well as social, cultural and spiritual influences. Service that seeks to work for significant and measurable improvements in people's lives also requires relationships that are based on an appreciation for the fullness of our human diversity.

Seva seeks to serve an evolving vision that integrates the ancient and the modern in ways that promote health and human harmony. It is a vision that has Seva working with modern surgeons and traditional healers, sharing the technology for surgically implanted lenses and supporting herbal remedies used by Mayan midwives. A vision that accomodates the best of both worlds.

The Mosby Foundation
P.O. Box 218
Deerfield, VA 24432

Mission Statement: The Mosby Foundation is organized exclusively for charitable purposes, to assist in the caare of sick, injured, abused, neglected and/or homeless dogs in order to ready them for placement in loving and permanent homes.

Mosby wasn't just any dog. It seems God decided to bless him by being a bit of an angel too. A Malamute-Husky mix, Mosby was literally loved by everyone who met the gentle giant. Mosby's nature was compassionate and gentle. Admirers often said that he had eyes that looked right through to your soul. As a certified therapy dog, Mosby took his life's work as graciously as any angel. Every person he met was given the gift that was bestowed upon him: unconditional love and acceptance. But on August 8, 2003, Mosby's gentle life came to an ubrupt end when he was intentionally shot and killed. Carole Adams, Mosby's owner, sought to turn her grief into positive action. And that's exactly what Carole has done.

"If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men." - St. Francis of Assisi
