In November 2019 a team of 12 foreigners and 46 Nepali staff returned to the amazing Nuwakot district beneath majestic Ganesh Himal once again to visit our completed projects and open our latest library project 'The Salme Educational Centre of Learning' located in Salme school, Salme village, Kispang, Nuwakot.
This beautiful school and village was host to our 2018 Charity Trek group as we hiked through the region. This area was hit by the 2015 Earthquakes very heavily and after discussion with the school officials in 2018 Dan and Arjun decided to help rebuild a brand new library/classroom facility for Salme school. The project was opened November 15th 2019 with an awesome celebration by the local school children and community. The 10 wonderful guests from New Zealand and America on the 2019 Charity Trek had helped fund the new library. They were guests of honor at the opening celebrations beneath majestic Ganesh Himal it was a very special day.

The 14 day trip had so many highlights along the way its hard to narrow it down... The beautiful vistas around every corner, the incredible organic feasts followed by campfire dancing, the hospitality of the local villagers, our super efficient Hearts team who do such an amazing job keeping us fed, safe and entertained and then of course, the curious children we meet in the villages and schools. The journey across this region is one that will stay with us forever. Thank you to everyone involved in this trip of a life time!!
