This gave us an idea to trade solar home lighting systems for baby goats. Your donation will give solar home systems to energy-poor families, living in rural Nepal, and goats to a girl in need.

Scores of Nepalese children cross the open border into India each year. They may be fleeing domestic abuse or seeking a better life, maybe some adventure. Unfortunately they often get picked up by the Indian authorities to be placed in Dickensian children's homes where they are trapped, often abused. No one makes much effort to trace their families and parents presume them dead. ChoraChori finds the children, repatriates and rehabilitates them, ultimately reuniting them with their families.
