Hattiban




Visted the village of Hattiban yesterday. We started the Tamang's new roof project by getting it measured and buying the corrugated tin and wood, bricks etc. Hopefully it will be finished by the time we leave so I can take a photo of it. The family is very happy about this, they do not hear or speak but the smiles on the faces show what they are thinking.

We also visited the school and took them a first aid box which was bought with money donated from an Ontario Beauty salon. Today we also went and bought a football and volley ball for them from the same donation. The one we had bought in the spring was totally worn out although they were still playing with it.

We have eight sponsored children here and we gave them all clothes which were uniforms from the Cowichan Station Traditional school which closed. The photos is of these children. This is a very poor village in the Kathmandu Valley.
