| CFI sponsors the campaign to raise funds to rebuild the Himalayan English Boarding School that was demolished by earthquakes shortly after it opened in 2014. The boarding school serves up to 200 children, some of them orphans. It will help stem the tide of language and cultural extinction of the Sherpa people of Tibetan descent living in the Himalayan region of Nepal. The only school located in rural Lukla it gives parents in the region the option of keeping the children home rather then sending them away to boarding schools in Kathmandu where they assimilate into modern western culture and lose their local language, customs, and family connections. The Himalayan English Boarding School will help prevent the Sherpa language from disappearing by the end of this generation as predicted. | $20,147 | $180 |
