The Guyana Pandits’ Council in collaboration with the Radha Krishna Mandir’s Yuva Shakti Sangh (youth arm) successfully hosted its Pinktober Bake Sale on Sunday, October 26, 2025, in observance of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This charitable initiative brought together members of the community in support of a cause that continues to affect the lives of many. The event featured an array of homemade treats prepared and donated by dedicated volunteers and supporters, with all proceeds directed toward assisting those impacted by breast cancer. Through the generosity of donors and the collective efforts of volunteers and patrons, a total of $350,000 was donated to the Guyana Cancer Foundation. These funds will aid the Foundation’s ongoing work in education, early detection, and patient support. The Yuva Shakti Sangh has since extended its sincere appreciation to everyone who contributed to the success of this initiative. “Together, we continue to make a meaningful difference in our community,” the youth arm noted in a statement. Just last month, President Dr Irfaan Ali joined devotees at the Radha Krishna Mandir in Georgetown for Navaratri observances. There, he had emphasised the need for talent within religious leadership to be used “for the development of our people, development of our communities, and the development of our country.”
