Friends - as many of you know, April 2007 I spent two weeks in Nepal, trekking in the Himalayas and visiting some charitable projects that my dear friend Kira Kay had helped to initiate. She has set-up multiple different projects in Nepal over the past few years, including Microfinance in remote villages, self-sustaining children's homes, and work with schools and hospitals. The purpose of our trip was to experience the beauty and wonder of Nepal, while visiting some of Kira's charitable projects and seeing the magic that is happening firsthand on the ground.

It was a deeply profound and meaningful experience for me and I am committed to continuing to support the work that is being done there.
