Great news! Arjun’s new home has progressed significantly since the last update and thanks to all of you for your continued support and donations and the target is now 62% funded. Arjun asked me to thank you all so much.

I returned to Spain in late March but Arjun has be sending regular updates with pictures and videos. I have added some of these below. It will take a few weeks for the cement to dry and the foundations to settle before more work can begin.

The next work to be completed will be the plumbing for the outside toilet and shower as well as the electrics. Then, the walls and ceilings can be plastered and finished. When this is all complete, the tiling of the floor and shower will be done.

Exciting times – both he and Ranjan were super excited when they saw the roof being completed. Their kids don’t yet know about the house progress as Arjun and Ranjan don't want to build their hopes. It has been tough for the kids in the last year so they prefer to surprise them when everything is ready. It will be great to see their reaction.

We hope to have their home completed by early July – before the heavy monsson rains. As it happened, it began raining early this week but, hopefully, this won’t slow things down.

Ok, I’ll send an update shortly.
