The idea was to publish a photography book about their life in one of the most isolated settlements in the world, and let the images do the work. This we did, and if you supported our project you should have received the copy of your book already.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\\\"font-family: ApercuPro-Bold;\\\"><span style=\\\"font-family: ApercuPro;\\\">Meanwhile, we managed to return to their valley twice since the project was launched, and now it's time to present you with a concise summary of everything we have achieved with your support.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\\\"font-family: ApercuPro-Bold;\\\">WHAT WE PLEDGED<\/span><\/p><div><p>We will split this update into two parts, focusing today on the year 2015. What did we plan to deliver after successful funding? Let's recap. The final sum which we received from Kickstarter, after all the fees were deducted (5% for Kickstarter and 3-5% transaction fee), was around \u00a37,200. We promised to spend one third of that on the book (\u00a32,400), based on our plan at the time to print 1000 copies at 50 pages only. The remaining proceeds from Kickstarter (\u00a34,800) were to be spent on:<\/p><ul><li>winter jackets, shoes and socks\u00a0for every school child<\/li><li>a greenhouse in which we would plant some green veggies to diversify children's diet<\/li><li>new floor in the school hall made of wood and concrete<\/li><li>permanent shade canopy on the main assembly square<\/li><\/ul><p>We pledged to fly to Leh at our own cost, to do all the shopping and organise the transport of goods to Linghsed, which lays roughly 2 days trek from the nearest traversable road. This we accomplished, and you can refer to our previous updates for details, but let's sum it all up now point by point.<\/p><p><span style=\\\"font-family: ApercuPro-Bold;\\\">1.

The money we would save on materials and labour could be invested into repair of the deformed and leaky roof.<\/p><p>We made a joint decision to follow Mr Dorje's proposal, scratch the wooden floor and shade canopy, and make sure that children have a soft new floor with thermal insulation and a new, safe roof, which will protect them from rain and withstand the weight of snow in the winter.

Tashi Tundup and Angmo have three children, two of which now attend the school, including Lektup and Tsultim whom you have seen on more than one photograph in the book. Little Palzis was only 1-year old at the time.<\/p><p>We realised that the family's situation was precarious and decided to take action, offering to cover the costs of reparation to make sure that the old family house stays dry and cosy and survives another winter. Neither Tashi Tundup nor Angmo, who live from subsistence farming and make hardly any money at all, would be able to finance it themselves. The workers started later that summer and the overall cost was around \u00a3500 (including materials, transportation and labour), which we deducted from our Lingshed fund. Needless to say, a little gesture like this goes a long way for a young family in Lingshed \u2013 credits to or thoughtful friend and collaborator, Kristina!<\/p>\",\r\n      \"align\": \"bottom\",\r\n      \"row\": 38,\r\n      \"col\": 3,\r\n      \"colspan\": 7,\r\n      \"offsetx\": 0,\r\n      \"offsety\": 0,\r\n      \"spaceabove\": 0,\r\n      \"spacebelow\": 0,\r\n      \"yvel\": 0,\r\n      \"push\": 3\r\n    },\r\n    {\r\n      \"type\": \"img\",\r\n      \"attid\": 347,\r\n      \"sizes\": {\r\n        \"_1280\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/SS01343-1280x854.jpg\",\r\n        \"_1024\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/SS01343-1024x684.jpg\",\r\n        \"_768\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/SS01343-768x513.jpg\",\r\n        \"_512\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/SS01343-512x342.jpg\",\r\n        \"_265\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/SS01343-265x177.jpg\",\r\n        \"full\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/SS01343.jpg\"\r\n      },\r\n      \"cont\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/SS01343-1280x854.jpg\",\r\n      \"align\": \"bottom\",\r\n      \"row\": 39,\r\n      \"col\": 3,\r\n      \"colspan\": 7,\r\n      \"ar\": 0.6675,\r\n      \"alt\": \"\",\r\n      \"offsetx\": 0,\r\n      \"offsety\": 0,\r\n      \"spaceabove\": 0,\r\n      \"spacebelow\": 0,\r\n      \"yvel\": 0,\r\n      \"push\": 3,\r\n      \"caption\": \"<p style=\\\"text-align: center; line-height: 2.5;\\\"><span style=\\\"color: #999999;\\\">The house of Angmo and Tashi Tundup<\/span><\/p>\"\r\n    },\r\n    {\r\n      \"type\": \"img\",\r\n      \"attid\": 338,\r\n      \"sizes\": {\r\n        \"_1280\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF0892-1280x854.jpg\",\r\n        \"_1024\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF0892-1024x683.jpg\",\r\n        \"_768\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF0892-768x512.jpg\",\r\n        \"_512\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF0892-512x341.jpg\",\r\n        \"_265\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF0892-265x177.jpg\",\r\n        \"full\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF0892.jpg\"\r\n      },\r\n      \"cont\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF0892-1280x854.jpg\",\r\n      \"align\": \"bottom\",\r\n      \"row\": 40,\r\n      \"col\": 3,\r\n      \"colspan\": 7,\r\n      \"ar\": 0.666875,\r\n      \"alt\": \"\",\r\n      \"offsetx\": 0,\r\n      \"offsety\": 0,\r\n      \"spaceabove\": 0,\r\n      \"spacebelow\": 0,\r\n      \"yvel\": 0,\r\n      \"push\": 3,\r\n      \"caption\": \"<p style=\\\"text-align: center; line-height: 2.5;\\\"><span style=\\\"color: #999999;\\\">Kristina and Palzis, Angmo's little daughter<\/span><\/p>\"\r\n    },\r\n    {\r\n      \"type\": \"img\",\r\n      \"attid\": 343,\r\n      \"sizes\": {\r\n        \"_1280\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/N2A9665-1280x854.jpg\",\r\n        \"_1024\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/N2A9665-1024x684.jpg\",\r\n        \"_768\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/N2A9665-768x513.jpg\",\r\n        \"_512\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/N2A9665-512x342.jpg\",\r\n        \"_265\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/N2A9665-265x177.jpg\",\r\n        \"full\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/N2A9665.jpg\"\r\n      },\r\n      \"cont\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/N2A9665-1280x854.jpg\",\r\n      \"align\": \"bottom\",\r\n      \"row\": 41,\r\n      \"col\": 3,\r\n      \"colspan\": 7,\r\n      \"ar\": 0.6675,\r\n      \"alt\": \"\",\r\n      \"offsetx\": 0,\r\n      \"offsety\": 0,\r\n      \"spaceabove\": 0,\r\n      \"spacebelow\": 0,\r\n      \"yvel\": 0,\r\n      \"push\": 3\r\n    },\r\n    {\r\n      \"type\": \"text\",\r\n      \"cont\": \"<p><span style=\\\"font-family: ApercuPro-Bold;\\\">CONCLUSION<\/span><\/p><p>Our first return to the valley was a success, even though we only managed to fulfil two of our initial four goals. Not being able to repair the floor on time saved our effort and resources from the damage heavy rainfall wrought in Lingshed just a month after our departure. Meanwhile, the children were equipped for the long winter with shoes, socks and thick winter jackets, the greenhouse was re-built and planted with veggies, and we focused on returning the next year to bring carpets, thermal insulation and make plans for a new roof for the school hall.<\/p><p>Overall, we spent around \u00a32,900 in 2015, and set aside the remaining \u00a31,900 from our budget for the floor and the roof to be completed next year. Meanwhile, the book was expanding with all the images we brought from our second encounter with the children of Lingshed, and soon it became quite clear that mere 50 pages simply would not do \u2013 the book would have to be at least 100-pages long!...<\/p><p>But more about this in <a href=\\\"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/blog-13\/\\\">Part 2<\/a> of our final Kickstarter update.<\/p>\",\r\n      \"align\": \"bottom\",\r\n      \"row\": 42,\r\n      \"col\": 3,\r\n      \"colspan\": 7,\r\n      \"offsetx\": 0,\r\n      \"offsety\": 0,\r\n      \"spaceabove\": 0,\r\n      \"spacebelow\": 0,\r\n      \"yvel\": 0,\r\n      \"push\": 3\r\n    },\r\n    {\r\n      \"type\": \"img\",\r\n      \"attid\": 368,\r\n      \"sizes\": {\r\n        \"_1280\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF6727-1280x854.jpg\",\r\n        \"_1024\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF6727-1024x684.jpg\",\r\n        \"_768\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF6727-768x513.jpg\",\r\n        \"_512\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF6727-512x342.jpg\",\r\n        \"_265\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF6727-265x177.jpg\",\r\n        \"full\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF6727.jpg\"\r\n      },\r\n      \"cont\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF6727-1280x854.jpg\",\r\n      \"align\": \"bottom\",\r\n      \"row\": 43,\r\n      \"col\": 3,\r\n      \"colspan\": 7,\r\n      \"ar\": 0.6675,\r\n      \"alt\": \"\",\r\n      \"offsetx\": 0,\r\n      \"offsety\": 0,\r\n      \"spaceabove\": 0,\r\n      \"spacebelow\": 0,\r\n      \"yvel\": 0,\r\n      \"push\": 3\r\n    },\r\n    {\r\n      \"type\": \"img\",\r\n      \"attid\": 339,\r\n      \"sizes\": {\r\n        \"_1280\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF6732-1280x854.jpg\",\r\n        \"_1024\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF6732-1024x684.jpg\",\r\n        \"_768\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF6732-768x513.jpg\",\r\n        \"_512\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF6732-512x342.jpg\",\r\n        \"_265\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF6732-265x177.jpg\",\r\n        \"full\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF6732.jpg\"\r\n      },\r\n      \"cont\": \"http:\/\/www.betweenfriends.co.uk\/childrenofzanskar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSF6732-1280x854.jpg\",\r\n      \"align\": \"bottom\",\r\n      \"row\": 44,\r\n      \"col\": 3,\r\n      \"colspan\": 7,\r\n      \"ar\": 0.6675,\r\n      \"alt\": \"\",\r\n      \"offsetx\": 0,\r\n      \"offsety\": 0,\r\n      \"spaceabove\": 0,\r\n      \"spacebelow\": 0,\r\n      \"yvel\": 0,\r\n      \"push\": 3,\r\n      \"caption\": \"<p style=\\\"text-align: center;
