Brief snippet of info!

Hey!  So I will do a real post soon, but here is a little something I threw together about the dZi foundation.  Check it out:


Here is a brief summary of our progress so far.  
  • dZi works in 5 Village Development Committees in two districts of eastern Nepal (Khotang and Solukhumbu) serving a total population of 11,814 (according to the 2001 census)
  • Our earliest projects began in April of 2007 and since then we have completed 50 multi-element projects
  • The total cost of these projects to date is $617,146 and local contribution has covered 28%
  • In some projects, local contribution is as high as 78%
  • Physical achievements: 966 new sanitary toilets, 50 Parent Teacher Associations, 38 new classrooms affecting12 new and existing schools, 20 drinking water projects, 6 community buildings, 6 improved bridges, 4 improved trails, 3 improved school roofs, 3 agricultural income generation projects, 1 water mill, employment for 1 native language teacher
Pretty rad, right?  

:)  

Love, Hailey
