Bamboo Truss

January 19, 2008

We had been “underground” in Harsar trying to finish the work at for CareNepal. Here is the first installation of our truss. This is just a training for bamboo connection to the local craftsmen. The real thing is yet to come!! The current unrest has put a hold in the progress, lets pray that the work will resume soon.

Hope for Education

January 4, 2008

Hope for Education ( an effort to raise money for school in Namje) here in Kathmandu this past Saturday was a grand success!

The turnout was well over expected- more than 170 people- and we managed to raise over Rs. 1,28,000 (approx USD $ 2031) after costs. Food and wine was good and the live performances by Tulsi Parajuli, Kunti Moktan, Sita Gurung, Kutumba, Barta Gandharva and Mica Sundari were superb. This is in addition to Rajiv Goyal’s previous fundraising effort in New York, which had already raise about $30,000

The event and Namje got some press in a few of the dailies (including http://www.kantipuronline.com/kolnews.php?&nid=132889) and interviews are still underway.
