Sujay’s 2010 trip

In December 2010, I was able to return home and see the school.  It was cold and all the children were bundled up. 

The government and economy of Nepal has deteriorated but the school is still open.  We are down to 50 students from a high of 72 two years ago.

As always, your donations are well appreciated.  We always have tennis clinics coming up which we hope will raise a few hundred dollars.  Thanks for being a friend of Project Nepal.
