AUSSI needs funds for elderly house

A Catholic association called Alumnarum Ursuale Sanctae
Societas International (AUSSI) is appealing to conglomerates to
help finance the construction of a house for the elderly in
Cinere, South Jakarta.

Christien Suriadjaja, the chairman of the association's social
affairs, said late last week the construction of the house, begun
last year, will be partially completed in November in conjunction
with the association's 25th birthday.

She, however, did not disclose the amount of extra funds
needed for the completion of the project.

In order to lure the public into participating in the project,
Christien said the owner would display names of the donors in the
rooms of the house. (arf)
