On Sunday Garry and the children were back at the department store to purchase some much needed equipment for the 40FRIENDS children’s home. Lincs2Nepal bought a washing machine (the clothes were being washed on the floor outside), two double gas burners (they had been cooking for twenty people on one gas ring), a water filter/dispenser, a microwave and a 50 inch TV. In addition, we were able to purchase a tablet for each child, courtesy of Ambitions Personel – thank you!

Garry also had a meeting with an engineer with 40 years experience, who is helping us free-of-charge with the upgrade of facilities. We need to: build a concrete block boundary wall to keep out the flood water which completely wrecks everything in the monsoon season; take down and rebuild the existing bedrooms; raise the roof on all the other buildings; put in new drains; and construct a sports court for the kids’ use. Exciting times for everyone!
