volunteers and family

Dear Bhutanese friends and families,

Thank you all for your GREAT CONTRIBUTION for this cause. Without collaboration nothing is possible. Now that we have collected money and have taken initiative to bring a favorite dish, we have some more responsibilities to bear in order to make the day the day of its own.

Given below are the performers and the favorite songs and the work distribution. If you have any question or comments, please let me know. I might have missed many of our names ( I confess I don't have a very good memory). Even without our names on the list, we can join any group to help. Let's step up!
