The Big Picture
In Nepal, where polluted water and no electricity are commonplace, Ama Foundation is building a sustainable home for 75 orphaned and abandoned children outside of Kathmandu.
Solar technology and environmentally friendly waste management systems will allow the home, and the children living in it, to be independent of the unreliable power grid as well as protect the pure water source nearby.
