Library For Batase Fundraiser Dinner
Event Information
Description
Namaste friends in Canberra!
Come support us at our #1 fundraiser dinner.
Enjoy some delicious Nepali food, beautiful company and a night that will make a difference in a small village of Nepal.
40% of adults in Nepal are illiterate. 57% live on less than $2 per day, and more than half live without electricity. Every day more than 54 young girls and women are trafficked out of Nepal and into India to enter a life of slavery.
But a LIBRARY can change this situation.
HOW? By tackling the real root of the issue of human trafficking by providing access to information and education through a 21st century library. We are collaborating with Libraries Without Borders based in Paris and Washington.
Come find out how 16 Australian students are going to build this library and how you can also help.
