Wanted: sponsors
Would you like to sponsor one of IPPG's projects?
Sponsor an issue of the IPPG newsletter in your country (US$200-300)
Become one of the sponsors for the photographic exhibition in KTM in September
Sponsor the building of another porter's shelter in Nepal (US$100 each)

It is quite simple to be a supporter of IPPG:

Spread the word, step in and complain about perceived injustices, ask your travel or trekking agent about their policy on porter safety and complain loudly if this is not up to standard. Finally, if you go trekking: take care of your porters!
