Greg Mortenson. He was just a man who climbed the second highest mountain, K2 in memory of his sister. After climbing K2 he lost his way down and found himself is a village in Afghanistan called Korphe. Korphe didn't have enough money for the young kid's education. They only got to buy a teacher to teach the kids but when the teacher is away the kids must continue their lesson on the mud in the ground. Greg wanted to stay and help build a school for the kids in Afghanistan. Greg soon made a donation for the kids and went to different contraries and waited for people to sit down in the empty rows and rows of seat that had little white envelopes on the seat for donation. The donation was for the kids in Afghanistan to raise money to build the school. As people go in and out of the theater there will be some money in the envelopes for the donation. Once Greg got enough money to build the school, he was then told he was not allowed to build the school in Afghanistan. However, even though he wasn't allowed to build the school he did anyways. Greg then later on met a lovely girl named Tara. Even though they have only known each other for six days they got married. Greg then left Afghanistan to be with his wife. When he got back to Afghanistan a few weeks later, he saw that he school was not built. He got frustrated but was then told that they didn't do build the school 'cause they didn't have enough material to finish the school. Greg got more workers to go back and forth bring materials to the constructions zone. Greg had to go back home again 'cause Tara was pregnant. Greg was almost finished the schools so he didn't go home to his pregnant. By the time his finished the school, his daughter was born. Greg is now going to different contraries and help them and much as he can.
