BHPFA and SheJumps are partnering to bring educational outdoor experiences for girls and women that nurture growth and transformation. To kick off this new partnership and to raise excitement for winter they are hosting a film series that will run through November, December, and January focused on women’s stories in the outdoors.
January’s film ”Pasang: in the Shadow of Everest” is a story that chronicles Pasang Lhamu Sherpa's relentless quest to become the first Nepali woman to summit Everest in 1993. As an uneducated, indigenous woman and a Buddhist in a Hindu kingdom, her dream to scale the legendary mountain pits her against her family, foreign climbers, her own government, and nature itself. Her life would inspire a new generation of women, and her death would change a nation.
