Recap of NEIO Fundraiser “Benefit In The Sky” | San Francisco | 9.29.2012

The NEIO team would like to express much sincere gratitude to all our friends, guests, volunteers, and sponsors who came out to support our cause for education in Nepal.

Your generous contributions to the “Benefit in the Sky” rooftop event made it a huge success! We raised over $3,000 and 100% of the proceeds go towards the Nurbuling school for the next project, which is to build a hygienic, compostable, and eco-friendly toilet system within the school. This will lead to improved sanitation and a healthier learning environment for the school children. We couldn’t have accomplished this without all your support!

Here’s a recap of the event… enjoy!

Leslie Kay Bakery’s goodies were full of varieties and flavor!

Our volunteers helped to set up and secure the artwork on display.
