House Renovation project in remote Sherpa village 2024 Feb!

We altitude Expeditions completed house renovation project in remote Sherpa village 2024 February. Due to Covid since 2020 the lack of tourism has wiped-out our main income and badly affected the local village communities of the Himalayas . We’ve been trying to help poor people in the remote areas of our village by carrying out projects like food drops, replacing plastic sheets for glass windows, reroofing properties and insulating houses to improve the lives of families who are not in a position to pay for food and vital renovation work themselves.

Being poor in Nepal is a bit different than being poor in your country.

The first problem, due to lack of finances, they couldn’t buy important things such as food, cooking oil glass for windows and zinc for roofing, they have been using plastic in a lot of cases since the earth-quake of 2015 and this causes many problems during the summer due to leaking water and cold, as well as wind damage.

Since 2018 we stablished, Our ambition is not only to provide great adventures, but also to help the remote villages where our climbing team and porters came from. AND -We donate 20% of our total revenue to support community projects. This includes: Providing windows, flooring, beds and bedding, provide blanket and mattress and cloths, health treatment, supporting children’s education fees. Since 2018 until these year we successfully glazed 7 houses with new windows and reroofed 3 house and build a house these year with the funds contribution from Lions club of Korbach Arolsen Germany and Poulo Andreotti with Pia Schafer and yourself.

This family are still sleeping on the floor with no flooring, no insulation and are exposed the elements every night. We are going to completely rebuild the house on a new stone base. The goal is to install plywood inside for insulation and also fit floorboards to protect from cold Along with 3 windows and it has 7 pc of glass and all electric line managed with light and build small bed to sleep and table to eat and drink. Before they don’t have such thing in home and couldn’t offer and expensive for them. Now fully done, also I gave blanket and mattress and build small simple kitchen outside.

NOW:

In the words of the Dalai Lama:

Helping others brings deep satisfaction. No matter how powerful we may seem to be, our survival depends on the community. Clearly the community is crucial to individual happiness, so if we make others happy, we too derive benefit. We need to take action. However, if we act out of self-centeredness, it will be difficult to be transparent, to earn others’ trust and friendship. By learning to be more warm-hearted we can create a more compassionate world.

Please join us and donate little as much you can, your donation will goes directly to the social charity project in the remote areas. Let’s hands together to change little by little the remote area Sherpa’s community.

We will keep update our next project Shortly, Thanks
