Our Last Post

Hey everyone!
So we just arrived back in Darjeeling. We spent the last week at Mim Tea Estate rebuilding a nursery. When we got there it looked like it was used to house animals. There was a dirty wood floor, chicken wire windows, corrugated metal walls....not a place for children. With the help of some locals we covered the walls with plywood and painted, added real windows, cleaned the floor, painted the old rusty roof, put up a ceiling, and added toys. It was recieved well by all the villagers, especially the children. It was an awesome feeling to go there and make a difference in the community and show them that they can make a difference too if they all pull together. Leaving a footprint like that was so rewarding for all of us and is what we came here to do. We have bittersweet thoughts about leaving in two days. As our last outreach here in India we have a kids program to run tomorrow in a small village just outside of Darjeeling.
We look forward to seeing you all soon!
Team Darjeeling
