Giving Tuesday 2017: Bricks for Nepal

Over the past two years, I’ve spent a large part of my winters volunteering time with Conscious Impact . In that time I’ve seen an amazing amount of change and growth in the organization and our relationship with the Nepali village of Takure. Although I do not currently have plans to return to Nepal this year, we gladly continue to support the work Conscious Impact is doing, and for Giving Tuesday I'm asking you to do the same. When I decided to volunteer with Conscious Impact, I wasn't sure what to expect. As soon as I arrived, I was welcomed into a group of some of the most compassionate, dedicated, and hard working people I've ever met. It didn't take long for me to recognize their respectful and mindful approach to working with a community in need. One of the first projects I became involved with was constructing a community greenhouse, which has since been used to grow thousands of coffee plants so that local farmers could join a coffee cooperative.
