New Zealanders donated more than $1 million to the Himalayan Trust's Nepalese earthquake appeal and now the charity is looking for Kiwis to join its work on rebuilding a school in the Everest region.
Two devastating earthquakes stuck Nepal in April and May, killing about 8900 people and destroying hundreds of thousands of homes, schools, health facilities and temples.
The Himalayan Trust, founded by Mt Everest conqueror Sir Edmond Hillary, has thanked everyone who donated to its quake appeal.
It has also announced another fundraiser it calls the "rebuild challenge" and is looking for 16 people to travel to Nepal a year after the quakes to help re-build a school.
The challenge is a 17-day trek through the "stunning" Everest mountain region and includes visits to village schools and the Khunde hospital, built by Sir Ed and the trust.
