Nerdfighters in Bangladesh – Project for Awesome

Sorry for the late upload. This is the story of the Dharmarajika Monastery in Dhaka, Bangladesh. It was formed in the 1960s by a respected Buddhist Venerable. During the Bangladesh War of Liberation which killed over 3 million people, the Buddhist Venerable setup an orphanage for children who lost parents during the war. Since then, the orphanage has turned into a hostel for both children without parents and those from poor families. No children are adopted – rather the Dharmarajika Orphanage serves as a dormitory giving kids a place to stay, food to eat, and a free education. Those staying in the hostel are allowed to continue to be residents if they want to pursue higher education after graduation. The monastery is trying to sustain this hostel through several income generating initiatives. They also charge tuition for their school for families in the surrounding community who are able to afford it. But, unfortunately, it’s never enough to do everything and there are often shortfalls. This is where the YouTube community was able to step in. The Uncultured Project project is not a charity or organization. It’s just something I do as an individual with the support of the YouTube Community. This was funded by donations to: uncultured.com Special Thanks to: Equipment & Operating Fund Donors ( uncultured.com ) Elgato Systems ( www.elgato.com ) Blumberg Segal LLP ( http ) CoreMelt Software ( www.coremelt.com ) Vestergaard-Frandsen ( http ) Staff at the American International …

www.theteenproject.us www.metropcs.com www.homeaidoc.org www.swimhb.org www.theteenproject.us Lastyear, while serving on the Foster Care Advisory board, it was brought to my attention that most kids leaving the system are homeless, they leave with no money, cars, parents, phones they just walk out. I went home and started researching and I was devasted to find that for foster children who turn 18: • 65 percent emancipate without a place to live• Although 70 percent of foster youth express a desire to go to college, less than 3% go.• In California, an estimated 20000 to 25000 youth are homeless and living on the streets.• A National study reported that more than 1 in 5 youth who arrived at shelters came directly from foster care. I had to do something. When I wasn’t at work or at home with the kids, I was talking about it. I started telling my story, and the story of our kids, every chance I could.In September 2007 I started a non profit, The Teen Project. I went to the bank with 0 in donations. I was so excited that people cared. But I never could have imagined how much they cared. Now, one year later, we have built a strong team of caring volunteers and we are all talking about it everywhere we go. We have raised more than 0000 in donations. In August, we bought our first home (in Lake Forest) for six teen girls, and we will support them through college. We have an online database to provide homeless youth with immediate access to shelter. And in 2009 we will …
