Set B Summary (Sikkim)

During the monsoon, getting to school was difficult for students when the roads become submerged. Consequently, several village elders set up a private school in a rented village house. However, the school became so successful that the private school soon ran out of space. The village elders wanted to extend the school but they lacked the manpower and money to do so. The village elders told Basu, a local tourism activist, about the problem and the latter mentioned the situation to Jane Low, a manager for international airline Jet Airways. Incidentally, Jane was in touch with some Rover Scouts who wanted to help a third-world community. Finally, Jane arranged for the scouts to fly out to Sikkim and the extension was completed in nine days. 125 words
