to the extreme climate conditions. Equipped with desks, seats,
board, school material and external hygienic facilities.

in favour of children, through information and teachers training.
- HEALTH
- Building of a small dispensary to
have the essential medical remedies and to educate adults
and children to hygiene.
- Training of one/two nurses and one
obstetrician and presence of a Tibetan doctor.
- TREES AND AGRICULTURE DEVELOPMENT
- Plant of several hundred trees and
fruit trees all around the village to provide shelter and
protection from wind, sun , earth erosion, and to produce
wood and fresh fruits thus improving nutrition, currently
very poor in vitamines.
- Develope a small agriculture project
to produce vegetables.
It will be a 3-year support and
this year’s fund will cover the cost for building the school.
Lama Help in Action’s volunteers
travel to Tibet every Summer to bring funds directly and personally
to the local authorities/communities. Therefore, the project to

Furthermore , always this year,
the Chiesi Group will independently support the Nepu Village Project
by contributing to the purchase and plantation of some hundreds
trees.
