we are not seeking intrusiveness, only a reminder for those busy in this season, who may have forgotten or misplaced some of our previous relatings.
We are expanding our focus broadly and deeply in 2020, as outlined in our November/December BLOG updates!
These expansions(below) are, in addition to work we already do in multiple countries over the past 9 years:
education coordination in Iraq/Kurdistan targeting mid-level and lower-level leaders
TCD – Transformational Community Development in the Middle East and Serbia(Balkans)
ELD – Entrepreneurial Leadership Development in the context of TCD in all countries we work in … and focused on Yazidi and Kurds and Serbs
education translations, focused on expanding in the Middle East, specifically among the Kurds and Yazidi
Kurds and Yazidi better enabled to expand the Development/TCD in countries near/in Kurdistan
Relief and Development work among refugees in Kurdistan/Iraq
EOY – End Of Year donations so far, have us wondering if maybe we’ve not communicated well. If you have not yet considered your EOY giving focus, please consider how you might enjoy vesting in those we serve, especially as we all join together in furthering Development and Self-sustainment !
These financial needs are:
$ 15,000 annually for 4x trips per year … usually 6-8 country locations, villages, refugee areas, etc.
$ 1,400 monthly personal … due to donations attrition and cost of living increases
$ 60,000 annually to specific projects, especially in Kurdistan/Iraq and the Middle East, where so much is suffering is present, and TCD Development expansion is so needful
Feel free to contact us for any clarifications and levels of current needs met.
Giving links are below.
Grateful for you … grateful for all your considerations!
Bangladesh … our newest country, village, water well, leadership development, and friends!
One of the greatest joys of any people working together in a common cause is to see an extension of their common efforts and quality labors together. Bangladesh is our newest example of this. With over a year in preparation, ground work, and relating to other organizations and leaders, we have now in February celebrated GHNI’s newest venture into what was once called “East Pakistan”(Bangladesh).

Water, clean drinkable water was the urgent need in this village, a couple of hours from the capital city of Dhaka. The villagers were ecstatic that we, together with them, were able to provide this new well. Celebrations are never a small endeavor in any village now having clean water. And they showered the visiting team with much in ceremonial thanks and words of gratefulness.
New well equals clean drinking water!Celebrating clean drinking water
Because of your generosity and willingness to give, our efforts together(with you) have opened up Bangladesh in new and self-sustainable ways! The celebration we experienced there … was for YOU also!
Thanks! Dan
Pratiraksha is doing such a phenomenal work in and around her home town of Dhangadhi, Nepal! Many times every month, she is spending time with children, parents and family members, “pulling” them into her warm personality and deep knowledge concerning Counter-Human Trafficking, HIV/AIDS awareness, Health, and Education.
Pratiraksha & Children Dhangadhi, Nepal
One of the beauties of seeing her work is in how she can so easily “draw/pull” a large number of people into her circle of influence, helping them in differing methods of education and the like. She and her mom also run an orphanage of 17 children, and an open-door clinic. Her ability to integrate Transformational Community Development(TCD) of GHNI into all she is and does, has been a win-win for all involved, especially the recipients of her work there in Nepal.
“Thank You” from Jatpara, India
Sponsors on specific endeavors and projects are so encouraging. Jatapara, India is a long way from Hilton Hotel, Hawaii. Yet a “connection” was made relationally between the two, as Hilton chose to sponsor a new well in this village. Jatapara’s New Well & Manu w/TCD
Manu(our GHNI staff in Jatapara) is currently leading the way as he mentors into this village, TCD, the “knowledge transfer” so important in any self-sustaining endeavor. We are grateful for he and Babujan, who have successfully completed one year of TCD in 4 villages in their areas. River For Water Lifting
Additionally, due to such successes as these, Hilton is offering to initiate a “River Water Lifting Project” that will allow a vast increase in crop production during the dry seasons.
We in GHNI are so thankful to you our financial backers, who have allowed us to partake of so many good accomplishments in 2014! Too many to list would be an understatement, as you have allowed us to work and develop in all five areas(Water, Food, Health, Income Generation, and Education) in Asia, the Middle East and Africa.
Joyful Holidays to you in this season of finishing 2014 strong and peering into 2015 with even greater endeavors TOGETHER!
Thanks so very much !!!
