Paving the way – a special event on 12.1.24 in Schaffhausen
Last year, a group of five cyclists from four countries cycled 600 kilometers in the thin air of the high Himalayas to raise awareness of the living conditions of the people who work at this altitude, sometimes under extremely difficult conditions, and to raise funds for Himalayan Life 's projects. We had the honor of making a film about this sponsored bike ride. Many of our clients and friends followed the project and support Himalayan Life.
Now we have the unique opportunity to organize a live event in Schaffhausen with Dani and Karin Bürgi, founders of Himalayan Life:

I/we will be attending the information event on January 12, 2024:
Helping people help themselves isn't just a slogan at Himalayan Life, but a lived reality. The organization builds schools, organizes sporting events across caste lines, offers programs to help street children get off drugs, founded the first PET recycling plant in Nepal, and is working to give smallholder farmers better prospects. The goal is always to pursue a long-term vision for genuinely improving living conditions. The organization employs almost exclusively locals in Nepal, thus creating jobs and imparting know-how to Nepalese people. We were inspired by this approach. On January 12, 2024, you will receive firsthand information on how development cooperation really makes a difference and how donations are used efficiently and directly to improve the living conditions of many people, especially children.
