A big thank you to the staff and students of Yongsan International School of Seoul (YISS) for their generous donation of $1,700. to MountainChild.  Lynn Greaves, Kate Johnston and Kara Everett, pictured, led this effort through multiple fundraisers and an YISS International Bazarre.  The three of these teachers visited MountainChild programs in Nepal in March 2012 and provided talent and experience to our local staff and the many remote people of Nepal.  MountainChild is grateful for the generous hearts at YISS.  Together we will continue to ”Carry Hope” throughout the Himalayas!

We are excited to announce that this weather station has been installed and will now begin gathering data. It is our next step toward bringing wind turbines to remote villages in the Himalayas later this year. 

MountainChild friends meet one of our teen heros, Ui Jeong Lee. She is President of International Students at King’s School in Seattle, Washington. It is Ui Jeong’s dream to work for human rights issues affecting children around the world.

Ui Jeong is not just a dreamer, she is puts action to her dreams. She recently formed a committee to raise awareness for MountainChild and children in the Himalayas and North Korea. She opened an exhibit on her campus highlighting issues facing these children. Soon this display will also open in her community. MountainChild thanks you, Ui Jeong Lee! You are making a difference and carrying hope!
