HeNN fecilitates Mingma Tshering Sherpa

Kantipur Report

KATHAMANDU, June 17 - Help Nepal Network (HeNN), a global charity running on a fully voluntary basis organised a  programme to honour Mingma Tshiring Sherpa at United World Trade center in the capital Tuesday who have climed Mount Everest for 13 times.

Mingma Tshering Sherpa on his 13th scale on 23rd May, hoisted the banner of HeNN with the view point of contributing his efforts for the non profit organization like HeNN.

‘I feel like I have contributed huge help through my small effort’, Sherpa said. He said he hoisted the flag to make people aware around the globe about the efforts HeNN is providing by contributing towards health and education in the remote parts of the country.

At the programme, HeNN England founder President Rabindra Mishra said that HeNN is currently involved with the establishment of construction of CIS shelter in Dhulikhel, Kavre and he is assured that the effort of Mingma Tshering Sherpa will surely contribute in the construction.

HeNN has built 12 to 15 schools, health posts, and emergency relief programmes in the past seven years.

HeNN-Nepal does not only co-ordinate with the Network abroad, but also works towards encouraging a sense of giving locally to support the Network's projects.

For instance, the HeNN teams abroad encourage Nepalis to “have a can of beer or a carton of juice less in a month and donate the savings to the fund ".

HeNN-Nepal encourages Nepalis at home to " have a plate of momo and a few cups of tea less in a month and donate the savings to the fund ."

As the Network’s Administrative costs are sponsored, each penny donated goes directly to the targeted area.

HeNN has its network in 12 countries including Nepal.
