April 15, 2010 - Project 2010 Nepal

The first major League of Ordinary Gentlemen project kicked off in late March, 2010. The League partnered with Street Kids International, and through various events over the past year funded the start-up of the Street Work, Street Health and Street Rights programs in the long-troubled Terai district of Nepal.

True to the founding principal of the organization to "be directly involved in significant charitable efforts, including both fund raising and personal physical involvement" founding members Larry Loftus, Shawn Bryan and Troy Bourassa traveled to Biratnagar, Nepal in order to participate in the launch of the training program in the long-troubled Terai district of Nepal.
