Just before I left home for Nepal I was at a road race. One of my friends won a medal and said he did not want it so I asked him if I could take it to Nepal. I have been waiting for the right child and occasion to give it away. A few days ago I visited Rabin and he showed me his school report. He had placed first inclass 3 with 96%. Yesterday he came to the office with his father to pick up a gift that his sponsor had asked me to buy for him. I decided this was the child that really deserved it. They are extremely poor but it had not deterred Rabin. I placed the medal around his neck and he was so happy. Unfortunately he has his eyes closed in the photo and I did not notice at the time. Also a photo of him with his gift of books and a football and playing with Mann's children in our compound.

It is amazing to see what you have been doing. I am wondering if the schools use English at all? Are books in English useful?
