American ‘Dulaan Project’ knits clothing for Mongolian orphans PDF Print E-mail
Wednesday, 30 May 2007

A group of former American Peace Corp members are knitting clothes for orphaned Mongolian children. 

The group, which resides in north Florida, is gathering to knit hats, scarves, mittens, sweaters, and ponchos for Mongolian children ages six to 12. They also collect money to be sent to the children. 

The program for knitting has been designated the Dulaan Project, which is headquartered in Flagstaff, Arizona. 

Explaining the purpose of knitting in their literature, the group says, “Dulaan is the Mongolian word for warm. Think of it not just being physically warm, but also the warm heart of human love, and the warm feeling that grows from knowing that you have touched a life, even on the other side of the world.”

Mongolia Websites

The goal of the Mongolian River Resources website is to provide information on a wide spectrum of topics related to natural resource use and the environment in Mongolia. This includes issues within Mongolia, and relevant international information and experiences. The need for information pertinent to the environment, ecology, and resource use, available to a broad audience with diverse interests and needs, was identified during the initial year of The Asia Foundation’s Securing Our Future program.
