What an incredible week. With the help of Santosh and Khem we bought school shoes for 11 Raksha Nepal children who had been turned away from their government school due to a lack of money. Then Raksha Nepal interviewed 15 girls and women who were arrested by a police raid and were subsequently harassed, physically abused and verbally assaulted by said police officers.
Later in the week, I somehow became the host of my friend Prava’s TV show (Life is Beautiful) featuring Raksha Nepal! We filmed the show to raise awareness about our wonderful organization and to hopefully raise some funds for our drastically needed (and under-funded) programs. Here is the link to that segment: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-A09mzdLJG4
