Some of the local women in the Kopan area asked Netra if he could help them start a candle making business. The ladies were concerned the water in the paper factory was harming their skin and some of the others were finding work on the building sites too strenuous.
The cost for enough equipment for a class of ten women was $300, so we made the money available. The class has been in progress for over two weeks and candles are being produced. There is a very small profit margin, but hopefully they will be able to make enough money so they do not have to work in the factories.
