A school mate of mine has requested me to publicize her efforts to fund a humanitarian project of hers through the sale of wine. Do have a read and contact her if you are interested:
Project Hearts for a Roof Mongolia 2007
Poverty housing in Mongolia 44% of the Mongolian population live in gers which have inadequate water supply, heating and hygienic facilities. Mongolia suffers from bitter winters of up to -40 degree celsius and the gers are inadequate to withstand the cold. With substandard living conditions, overcrowded quarters promote ill health and it impairs the people’s hope and self-worth.

With substandard living conditions, overcrowded quarters promote ill health and it impairs the people’s hope and self-worth.
What do we want to accomplish? Working in partnership with a nonprofit organisation, Habitat for Humanity. We share in their vision to eliminate poverty housing one house at a time and to bring to the home owners, pride in being part of the building process.

This is no ordinary bottle of wine In the midst of celebrating Valentine’s Day and the Lunar New Year, let us keep in our minds that the people of Mongolia are undergoing harsh winters at this time of the year. As part of our fund raising efforts, we are hoping to raise your alcohol levels over the holiday season. Each bottle of wine will be boxed up, ready to be presented as gifts.
