  How come this is tagged in Nepal? In Pokhara there is an amazing organization where they weave and this organization works with around 60 - 100 women to help them in their situation of poverty. They are based in Pokhara Nepal, there is also another organization like that one on the border of nepal-India, called SEEMA. Rupaidihaseema.org

  The Self-Master Colony was a shelter for homeless men in Union NJ, opened 1908 in the Hoyt family mansion. The building is now apparently used by the Girl Scouts.
