Three things

Links to advocacy and aid organizations
that I'd taken note of while we were
in South Asia last winter:

Rokpa International provides meals, education, medical care and shelter to children and families in Nepal, Tibet, Zimbabwe, and other countries.

Shakti "aims at empowering the girl child [in India] by providing financial support to the daughters of widows/handicapped parents/war martyrs in order to complete their education up to 12th [grade]."

Survival International advocates for the protection and rights of tribal groups around the world.
