Ang Chhiring Sherpa now lives in Mercer Island Washington, just outside Seattle. And this man has a dream of helping those back in his native Nepal. With his hopeful summit of Everest this spring he will have completed the 7 Summits he started with his summit of Denali on June 17, 2009.<\/p>\n

His cause is to raise money for his Himalayan Women and Children Foundation. Also to raise money and awareness for the health s, schools, hydroelectric project and airplane strip that he intends to establish in the Salleri area of Solu Khumbu, Nepal.<\/p>\n

A.C was born in Nepal and came to the US to join his brother and graduated from Mercer Island High School. When he returned to Nepal,\u00a0 he was inspired as he told his local newspaper<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the reasons that I personally wanted to take this responsibility is because Sir Edmund Hillary, climbing one time, gave so many things to Sherpas \u2014 four high schools, six medical s \u2014 in the district area, but didn\u2019t reach the village area.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

He and his wife, Dr. Allison Han,\u00a0 a dentist, have since free mobile dental and medical in Salleri, Nepal.<\/p>\n
