There are numerous ways in which you can help.
1) Advice and Ideas
Giving us, particularly on the technical and engineering aspects,
the benefit of your knowledge and expertise. Or directing us to
an individual or company who would be willing to give some thought
to the project.
2) Engineering Facilitities
In school we do not have the facilities to build structures
to the required specifications for a project of this nature. Can
you help by not only providing the facility but also the engineering
expertise required in the construction?
3) Support
We need support in making the most of our publicity and this
includes the printing of publicity materials sent to potential supporters.
Contacts within the media.
4) Financial Input
To show a willingness to make a financial contribution to the
project, either in its initial engineering development phase, or
for the expedition itself. Financial support is vital for the success
of this project and the possible benefits it might hold, not only
for the people of Kathmandu but other major cities of the Third
World.
5) The provision of equipment
As with (4) this can fall into two categories, the provision
of equipment/materials for the development and manufacture of the
prototypes and also the provision of equipment and supplies for
the expedition.
I hope the project will be funded entirely by sponsorship
from companies or individuals interested in or involved with automotive
power, environmental issues, and engineering. Grants will be applied
for from charitable trusts interested in supporting technological
development to improve the environment.
The aim would also be to raise significant funds so
that the Nepalese could continue with the production of vehicles.
This might come as a result of the expedition, depending on its
success.
If this project is successful and the technology produces
a significant improvement at an accessible cost, then it may have
far reaching implications throughout the Third World.
