A warm welcome …
… in Merangding. The women not only distributed the traditional flower wreaths, they also cooked in advance and prepared everything perfectly. We really enjoyed exchanging ideas in this pleasant atmosphere. It’s great to see how the women stick together and put what they have learnt into practice. This fantastic work is only possible thanks to the support of the Schöck Family Foundation, for which we are very grateful.

Hair bands..
… were exchanged in Kathmandu for warm jackets with the Oportunity Village (OVN). Synergies and added value are important to us, so the girls in Pokhara were able to earn money by sewing the hair bands, which are now being distributed to the women in the villages. 30 warm jackets were handed over for the girls in Pokhara. We are delighted about the synergy between the projects and would like to thank the sponsors for their many years of support.
