Working with Orphans

This is Janet and Steve. Two new friends from New Zealand who have moved to Kutch to build an orphanage shown in the background. Since the folk arts of Kutch are passed down from generation to generation we have a heart to to help Janet teach the orphans who will live here the traditional crafts of teh region. The value of the tradition will be lost of it is taught by us, but we are sure we could entice some of the older women in nearby villages to do classes for them. Janet and Steve are building a workroom for teaching sewing, tailoring etc, withought even knowing we would be introduced. We met them headed to another village and they were way out a road, we never even planned to meet, as we were not sure they were there. Hardly an accident - all things work together for good. They are living without water or electricity as they build the orphanage and an amazing committed couple.
