There are several exciting updates this week with GPE Nepal! For one, we recently purchased our airline tickets. Five of us will be traveling together from Florida and Taylor will be flying from India and meeting us in Kathmandu. For many of us, this marks the beginning of our journey. It’s surreal to think we’ll be in Nepal in just a few months.
The anticipation and excitement continues to grow with every planning meeting. We are beginning to develop lesson plans for the children’s hostels in Daldale and Meghauli. The five core values we decided to focus on are: Leadership, Compassion, Teamwork, Health, and the Environment. Within those categories, we will be playing games, working on youth empowerment, and teaching extracurricular activities such as self defense. In preparation, Sophee has arranged a set of self defense classes for GPE taught by Dr. Sam Staley. Anyone is welcome to join! The trainings will be March 23rd, March 30th, and April 6th at 4:00 pm on Landis Green.
We’ll be Tie-Dying on Landis Green April 3rd (11:00 am to 4:00 pm) promoting our Jam for Peace event and Holi celebrations on April 5th. We’re also beginning to look for sponsors! If you would like to sponsor this event or donate to GPE Nepal, we will include your business name on the back of our t-shirts.
And don’t forget about our Funstation fundraiser this Thursday night! See you there :)
