 Daily news from the Canaries and the islands' biggest English language newspaper on-line Second Hindu fair Following last year’s success, a second Hindu Fair was held in Adeje on February 7th, with funds raised being destined towards helping the victims of the catastrophic earthquake in Haiti through the Red Cross and UNICEF.  Adeje mayor, José Miguel Rodríguez Fraga stated his satisfaction with the number of people who attended this year’s fair and stressed once again the importance of activities such as this to promote and encourage people from the different cultures who reside in Adeje to live together harmoniously and peacefully. Fraga demonstrates this himself all too well by always joining in with the spirit of the event. The president of the Red Cross, Juan Francisco Reverón, thanked those who attended the event, and especially the Hindu community and other organisers who chose the Red Cross as the channel for the funds collected in aid of Haiti. The consul for India, Mr Gope Matan, the president of the Hindu Association, Jagdish Fabián and the president of the Hindu Cultural Centre Carlos Mirpuri also attended the fair.
