About this Course

In June 2011, seven SNC students and two faculty members will travel with the Truckee, CA-based Bodhi Tree Foundation to deliver pre/postnatal vitamins and medical supplies to the women of Humla, the most remote region of Nepal, deep in the western Himalayas. This trip will be the center of two courses each student will complete; the students will gain traditional academic and real-world knowledge of Service Learning as well as Nepali art and culture. In addition to our service, we will visit many significant cultural and religious monuments for both Buddhists and Hindus. Join us as we prepare for this adventure of a lifetime.

A HUGE thank you to Incline Breakfast Rotary Club!

This morning two students joined Amye and I to present at the Incline Breakfast Rotary Club. We wanted to invite the members to our fundraising Banquet on May 23. (More on that event to come.)

After we introduced our talented girls and talked about the amazing work they are going to do in Nepal, the club president asked his members to make donations--Amye and I both had tears in our eyes, because we were not expecting such generosity. Thank you to everyone who opened their pockets to us today to buy tickets and make personal donations that totaled $650!

AMAZING!
