KARE is a two-person project that provides medical care to the street dogs in Kirtipur, Nepal. KARE provides rabies vaccinations, deworming for puppies, treatment for mange, spay/neutering, rescue/adoption, and other urgent medical care.

In memory of my dear friend Apsana

Apsana was one of the most vibrant and intelligent person I have known. She was full of energy and that special spark that you find so rarely. It's hard to comprehend the depth of this loss.

Apsana was one of our students in the Cornell-Nepal Study program during the year that I served as the residential coordinator. She was brilliant, compassionate, quirky and charming. I remember her walking with me with a can of red paint, marking the dogs that we vaccinated with a bright red paint streak. She helped me carry plastic piles of food to feed the rescued pups, and doled out the meat-rice mixture to all the street dogs in Kirtipur on dog-puja day of Tihar.

All it takes is a simple gesture to create him feel loved.
Each time he sees the gift you needed customized, he'll think in the special occasion he received it which means he'll think of the giver every time as well.

You'll never be aware of impact that your style can bring towards the next generation.
