First step? CLEAN WATER!
We figured that if we could get a big enough tank, we could put it above the "shed" and fill it with water from an electric pump a few hours a day.  Then we could run a line along a wall and provide taps for them to use for washing - their first "shower" ever!  
 
They had a pump and could get the water, and thanks to Susan Carras and Stephanie McAndrew, I was able to order a tank.  They were also out of rice and a few necessities, and I headed out to get that too...  
 
It was a very special day as well, because while in Tibet I met four people from Denmark and we all became fast friends.  When we found out we were all coming back to Katmandu on the same flight, I asked if they'd help me out and they were more than willing...  
 
Thank you Louis, Mie, Thea, and Laura for making this such a special day for all of us.

We got the biggest reward of all with amazing dinner of Dal Bhat - the staple food in Nepal which is rice, lentils, curried vegetables...

Testimonials

I have personally contributed to their projects, and CAA chose Global Colors to launch our volunteer program in South Africa and Mozambique.

I believe the work they do in the U.S. and around the world is commendable, and I strongly endorse the support of Global Colors.
