After 3 weeks in the field, we’ve dispatched 17 shipments of materials ranging from rice, metal sheeting,tarps, pads, dal, and medical supplies.  Over 30 tons in all.  Big aid agencies and the government of Nepal are nowhere in sight.  Nepalis are realizing they have to do much of this on their own.

Lobsang Lama of the Tibetan Commerce Club combines his cooking oil with our 150 bags of rice and our truck for long distance delivery to Jiri. Shipment was delayed 3 days due to road closure above Charikot.  Lobsang agreed to flash our banner .
