TWE 233: Maggie Doyne, CNN Hero on BlinkNow and her ground-breaking children's home and school in Nepal
Maggie Doyne, founder of BlinkNow in Nepal and a 2015 CNN Hero, was 19 years old when she witnessed the huge numbers of orphaned children in Nepal and was determined to do something about it. With her babysitting money, she built a children's home and school in the Kopila Valley, and now has 53 children, some of whom have just gone off to college.
