Mother’s Day 2024 Matching Campaign: Your Gift Matched at 1:1!
In November 2023, ETC offered a new and special travel opportunity: a unique two-week trip in Nepal, featuring a site visit to ETC’s current working villages in Sunsari District.
The fifteen travelers met ETC and program partner Save the Earth staff and women’s group members, visited schools and families’ farms and gardens, and attended women’s group meetings. (Click on any of the photos below to view a larger version.)
While there, they saw for themselves the real, positive difference ETC’s work makes for so many families. You can read or listen to testimonials from some of them by clicking on the links below:
