| June 7, 2010 | Nevada Secretary of State congratulates religious statesman Zed for Census effort | |
Nevada (US):Nevada Secretary of State Ross Miller has congratulated and thanked religious statesman Rajan Zed for his 'work on a successful U.S. Census effort here in Nevada'. In a letter to Zed, who is President of Universal Society
of Hinduism, Miller wrote: "You can take a measure of pride in knowing that your
efforts helped create a better Nevada. On behalf of all my fellow Nevadans, I
extend sincere gratitude for your work." Miller further said: "You clearly understood
the significance of the Census results, and were able to communicate that significance
to your fellow Nevadans." Rajan Zed was a member of the Complete Count Committee
(CCC) to help guide Washoe County's outreach and education activities regarding
the 2010 Census, representing clergy of the area. Complete Count Committees (CCCs)
are established to motivate communities to respond to census and often include
a cross section of community representatives - including government agencies,
education, business, faith-based organizations and the media. The 2010 Census
is a count of everyone living in the United States. The first Census was conducted
in 1790 and has been carried out every 10 years since then. Zed is also on the
Board of Directors of Nevada World Trade Council and Northern Nevada International
Center, and Director Interfaith Relations of Nevada Clergy Association. He is
one of the panelists for "On Faith", a prestigious interactive conversation on
religion produced jointly by Newsweek and WashingtonPost.com, and has been bestowed
with "World Interfaith Leader Award". |
