Maggie Doyne’s Mission in Nepal
Maggie Doyne, winner of CNN Hero of the Year 2015, continues to help children in Nepal through her nonprofit BlinkNow Foundation.
She started her work in Surkhet, Nepal, when she was only 19 years old. What began as one small home for children has now grown into a full school and community center.
