We had set a target of $3000.00 for March so that the Youth Training Phase of the program could start in April.
Well, we made it!
A huge thank you to all donors and those who rallied at the final hours to take advantage of the Global Giving Bonus Day additions to the fund.
For your interest, I have included a link to May 2010 Newsletter that might interest you. Outcomes shown in this newsletter reflect the potential of the Mirge Program.

Also, the latest news from the village is that Majhgaun Lower Secondary School has just been granted funds from the Ministry of Education to build two new classrooms. That makes only 14 to go!
April 2nd marks the next major fund-raising event - an exhibition of my paintings. It runs for two months and all sales will be donated to the program. I have also prepared a fund-raiser package for a dinner party, called 'A Night in for Mirge'. I will post this in the next week or so, and if you can host an event like this then that would be great. Fun and fund-raising all in one night.
I look forward to letting you know more about the starting date and activities related to the first phase of the program next month.
