Maggie Doyne looks tired. But you would too if you had 40 children.

And they are all late to bed tonight.

Doyne, 26, is the founder of the Kopila Valley Children’s Home and School in Nepal and creator of the BlinkNow Foundation. She has legal custody of the 40 children, who live full time in the home. An additional 340 kids are currently enrolled in the school. And in June she opened a women’s center at Kopila Valley.
