As many of us begin to remove our masks, make travel plans, and rekindle our relationships life finally feels as though it is getting back to what it was before the pandemic. With the promise of normal edging ever closer, it’s all too easy to forget that the situation outside of ou
r home could not be more bleak. Currently, there are countries whose health care systems are crumbling under the weight of the COVID-19 infectedpopulation, increasing death rates and, in some worrisome cases, spawning new variants of the virus; unfortunately. Nepal is no exception. Whether it is the local Lions Club, Jaycees, or the Red Cross helping him create plans for services; his sister, Rebekah Ocker, assisting his health fairs and educational programs; his friends and local clubs who have already provided over 2,000 knitted hats and produced another 1,000 during the pandemic; or a philanthropist/CEO from Florida who agreed to match all donations to the foundation up to $25,000, Terry is indeed truly blessed to have such a big-hearted support network. Despite this immense amount of kindness, Terry continues the fight for progress in Nepal, because he knows precisely how important his continued work is. This is only emphasized by the fact he continues to operate from his home and without a paid staff so that 100% of the gifts he receives can go to the cause—and the results, honestly, speak for themselves. He has delivered food in the form of rice and cooking essentials, a new school, sanitation stations, health through knowledge, education through solar energy and light, and finally warmth through clothing to some of the most impoverished, and oft forgotten, communities in the region. Terry is planning a trip in August/September 2021.
