#23 | Upbringing vulnerable children in Nepal to flourish with Trish Ryan

Trish Ryan is The Founder of Meg’s Children, a Registered Charitable Trust established in 2005 to support vulnerable Nepalese Children who do not have any family support. Meg’s Children works in partnership with Siddhi Memorial Hospital to support the upbringing of vulnerable and at-risk children in Nepal, by providing for their daily living needs and meeting their right to education. They support the upbringing of vulnerable and at-risk children in Nepal to help them grow and flourish. Meg’s Children Nepal believes that every child has the right to education and the right to have their daily living needs fulfilled. They strongly believe that Education is a basic human right. These necessities, and the children’s health and safety, are therefore enabled solely by funds raised through our trust, which is run by volunteers in the Albury-Wodonga district. They are proud to say that 95 cents of every dollar raised goes directly to our children in Nepal.

#09 | Creating World Wide Change with Steph Woollard

Get ready to hear from one of the most inspiring and insightful beings I have even met! Stephanie Woollard began Seven Women at age 22 after meeting seven disabled women working in a tin shed in Kathmandu. These seven women were struggling to make a living in the face of harsh discrimination. 15 years on and over 5,500 women have been educated, trained and employed by Seven Women, providing the tools to lift themselves out of poverty. Stephanie has been internationally recognised with numerous global awards including the UN Rotary International Responsible Business Award and more recently the Order of Australia. Seven Women is dedicated to Empowering disabled and marginalised women in Nepal through drawing out their human potential. Steph shares insights on her belief that to making real and lasting change, is about drawing out the full potential in others; starting with oneself.  It was a true honour and privilege to speak, connect and learn from this inspirational lady, who is no where near finished in providing help, support and value to the world. …
