Projects for year 2009
Below we have projects for the Foundations, Organizations and people who are ready to donate money for the good cause and are searching for humanitarian works to make a better world somewhere here on this earth. We hereby suggest everyone who stops by to go through our site thoroughly and go away in peace. While your money can not buy peace, it can bring you peace when you give it away a little bit. Peace to giver and receiver.

This is our present school with grass roof and bamboo wall around. It is quite unsafe in wet season as the rains leak through the grass roof and from the bamboo wall around. Children often get wet in the class. We are in great need of a safe roof with a concrete wall around.
The school doesn’t have enough chairs and desks for the children. Some time the children study as standing. We are in great needs of chairs and desks.
This is the empty ground where we plan to build a teachers’ quarter since the school doesn’t have teachers’ quarter: houses for the teachers and volunteers.
The children in the school need clean and good water tanks to store water coming from the hills.
This is the present dining hall with grass roof and no wall around. In wet season children eat foods in the rains. We are in great need of a safe dining hall.
These are a few of 164 hill-tribe children who study in the hill-tribe school.
