<p>This year&#8217;s Nepalese New Year Fundraising event on the 5th May 2018 was a huge success.  The hall at Lourdes Hill College was buzzing with supporters and volunteer workers.</p>
<p>Luya Music provided the early evening musical entertainment and the delicious food was cooked by the  Tibetan Kitchen staff.  After the meal the children from the Nepalese community performed for the audience showcasing some of their traditional costumes and dances.</p>
<p>This dinner plays an important role in helping NAFA to make a difference to the lives of people in Nepal, especially when so many communities are rebuilding after the devastating earthquakes of 2015.  We are very proud to announce we raised  $19,093.00.</p>

<p>For Rick Parkes, aged 74, walking 817 km of the Camino Norte in Spain will be quite an undertaking but with your support he is up the the challenge.  His motivation is to raise $5,000 to help educate and improve the health of children in the remote village of Tawal.</p>
<p>He visited Tawal in November 2017 and was inspired by the community efforts to improve the lives of their children.</p>
<p>Rick starts his walk on 19 April 2018, he is highly motivated and would be very grateful for your support.</p>
