Since we left Bhutan and returned home, we have been working to raise funds for the Gross National Happiness Exchange Program, which we will need in order to bring Bhutanese students to the US this February. In the last month, we have gained the support of Weston High School and the Weston Public Schools Board of Education. With the signatures and backing of both the Royal Education Council of Bhutan and Weston High School, we have begun to reach out to various organizations including the Rotary Club and the Kiwanis Organization. We have also been working to gain funds locally and contact various Bhutanese communities across the US. In addition, we have created a club in our school called the "Bhutan Club", which has over fifty members and is working for the sole purpose of planning, organizing, and raising funds for this exchange program.
Also: If any readers are interested in supporting the goals of this program, please contact me at julianjacobs6@gmail.com.
