Photos are up, and some thanks

There are two purposes for today’s post, the first is to let you know that we have just added a photos section to our website. There are already plenty of great photos there from all of our projects in Nepal and we will keep adding more. You can see the photos by going to our website (http://www.mitrataa.org) and then clicking on the “Photos” button on the menu bar.

Thanks as always must go to Christine Shim, a director of the Foundation and also our chief website and graphic design expert. Christine does a fantastic job of keeping the website up to date and looking fantastic – so “thanks Christine”!

Whilst on the subject of thanks, I wanted to take this opportunity to thank all of our partners in Nepal who have worked particularly hard in the past couple of months to make Thulo April 2008 such a massive success. We honestly could not have run all of the programs so successfully without their tireless commitment to making it happen. More important though is their contribution to the Foundation’s work on an ongoing basis including email updates on girls with scholarships, managing new scholarship applications, putting together new project proposals and handling all of the logistics to bring programs to fruition.


In particular we want to thank:

- Rabindra Puri and his staff
- Milan Dharel and the staff at CWISH
- Madan Siwakoti and the staff at Riviera International Academy
- Bal Krishna Dangol and the staff at Nepal Children’s Organization, Bal Mandir

There are many others who have helped us get to where we are today and for this we are extremely grateful. Top of this list includes all of the many donors, some have been contributing regularly since we began almost 8 years ago! Thanks also to the many volunteers who have traveled to Nepal this year to help run programs and make huge contributions to our work.

To everyone mentioned above, and anyone else who has been involved in some way, we say “thanks!” as we look forward to making even more of an impact in the future!
