The Asia Transpacific Foundation was set up in 1998 to give back to the people of Asia who have opened their hearts and been so welcoming over the years to those visiting their homelands. This money has gone to helping with access to clean water in rural Asia. The fund is currently being used to help in Nepal with disaster relief for the recent devastating earthquake.
