Bhutanese Refugee Empowerment Project NC

Sewa USA voluteers have been working on some basic things with the Bhutanese. Shiv Prakash Mishra, a karyakarta from our Vivekananda Shakha is coordinating the efforts for our Bhutanese brethren.

So far what we have done is:

1. Temple rides every week (with some exceptions) to 10-15 Bhutanese brethren
2. Warm clothes for the winters
3. Jobs for them (have managed to get 2 of them placed at a restaurant), working on more

Plans for future:

1. More jobs
2. BRE will be the most important project of our UNC shakha in spring semester - we will work on helpin them with car driving lessons, jobs @ unc if possible, basic english (and other) lesssons for the kids (conducted by UNC students)
