Passionate About:

My passions are many but if I have to narrow it down, I'd say I'm most passionate about traveling to new countries where I can immerse myself in the culture, learning about the people and their customs, their food, their religion, their language, and their day to day life. To be able to achieve all of this, and at the same time, be able to help rebuild a village that was 99% destroyed by last year's earthquake, is an honor and a gift. For a month I'll be living in a tent in the small village of Takure and working with the people of Takure and other volunteers from all over the world. We'll be working on sustainable projects (organic gardening, building wells and water filtration, building houses and schools from bricks made by us, helping to teach in the schools etc) to get the village up and running again. Every few dollars that are donated mean more bricks, more building supplies, school supplies...so much is needed! 100% of donations go to this rebuilding effort. Even the smallest amount can make a difference. Please take a moment to check the website and learn more about this wonderful project: http://www.consciousimpact.org/

Rebuild Nepal: September 26 - October 5



Volunteer Activity Description

Join us as we continue our work in Takure, Sindhupalchok where 99% of all buildings fell in the 2015 earthquakes. This September marks 1 year of us working with Takure to rebuild sustainably and stronger than before using natural building technologies. The Takure Training & Production Center will be starting back up earth block production after monsoon. There will be lots of work to make bricks, move resources to prepare for the Takure Primary School construction (the 2nd school we will rebuild this year), and participate in our Agriculture & Education programs. Join us to serve the local community during the beautiful green end of monsoon. It will be nice and warm and rainy and lots of fun!
