Here’s a letter to the people of Friday Harbor from Linda Cooper…

Dear San Juan Update,

My dear friend, Marty Robinson, long time Friday Harbor Elementary School secretary, was trekking in Nepal when the recent earthquake took place. She is safe with a group of 5 people from the Northwest organized by 4winds of Seattle. Having also done this trip, I know how kind the Nepalese people are; they made her group their upmost concern in a difficult situation. She asked me if you might post this website: http://fourwindsnepalrelief.com/

In the center group shot, Marty is in the front row 4th from the left. This photo was taken before the quake hit, and scrolling down you can see some of the recent damage. These porters work incredibly hard and rely on trekkers for their livelihood.

Thank you,
Linda Cooper
