Maternal and infant mortality is a huge issue, world-wide. When I met Arlene Saman, the founder of One Heart Worldwide I was excited by the results they were seeing and I had ideas for ways to make the work even stronger. It was my pleasure to join the board of directors in 2015 and watch the work grow. Until this year, I've only watched from afar, but in 2018 my wife (@MsGreene) and I made the trek to Nepal with Arlene and 14 other people to see the work first hand. Join us as we recount the sights and sounds of Nepal from our journey with One Heart Worldwide.
In this episode: Alan and Cheryl Greene talk about the legacy their group of travelers was inspired to leave in Nepal -- with admiration for the One Heart Worldwide founder, Arlene Samen and OHW board chair Deanna Byck.
In this Episode: Alan Greene and Cheryl Greene share their experience at The Pavilions, an off-the-grid luxury resort in Nepal that is staffed by trained workers who were once impoverished.
