The saying' Time flies when one gets older' is so true. I cannot believe that it is September again , the time to make my annual trip to see the children in Kathmandu!
What a year it has been. KIKN has achieved the objectives we set for 2017, but is very aware of a bigger challenge come April 2018. It is when we hope to put 15 able children through to year 11 and 12 ( the 6th forms).We have been widening our fund raising circle, thanks to our newest trustee, Kate . Kate is busy organising various events where she works , 3 separate events in fact, with the hope of securing more funds for KIKN's education budget in 2018. So far so good.
KIKN continues to raise its profile through a core of loyal supporters who will host theme evenings. An Italian evening being hosted by Barbara Scott is one such event coming up in October, on my return from Kathmandu. Then there's another sponsor who is going to pay £2,000 a year to enable KIKN to set up our 5th Breakfast club . This will enable another 50 children, some of whom go begging for food each day before and after school, to have one regular meal a day. KIKN is certainly on a roll!
As I progress through life, I am increasingly believed that positive thinking pays , each and every time!. The power of our subconscious mind is not to be ignored. Time and again I have faced a tight/difficult situation, but have always being optimistic that we will find a way through it.. It invariably does, and I am so grateful. The amazing universe always answers my call.......
I fly to Kathmandu today with optimism and gratitude. Everyone I have encountered while carrying out the work of KIKN has not failed to amaze me, particularly the Brits, who are so generous and kind and with such open mind.
Thank you.
