  Imagine what would happen if a billionaire from Boston is left in a distant, poor Ugandan village with no running water or bathroom. Surprisingly, he gets to work and uses his problem-solving skills and money to improve the lives of the poor villagers.
  National Geographic Channel's (NGC) Undercover Angel is a ten-part special that follows some of the world's richest people as they go undercover and exchange their mansions for huts. This groundbreaking show has the wealthy coming face to face with the realities of poverty.
  The "Angels" come from Australia, South Africa, the UK, and other First World countries. The fancy life they are used to is taken away, and they are thrown into some of the poorest places on the planet, such as Cambodia, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. Rather than handing over large amounts of cash, they use their know-how and business backgrounds to create long-term changes. These efforts greatly improve the communities they visit. The angels start projects that provide clean water, learning centers, and much more. To find out more about the challenges they face, check out the touching Undercover Angel this month on NGC.
























 

  想像一下,如果把一個來自波士頓的億萬富翁留在沒有自來水和廁所的偏遠、貧窮烏干達小村莊的話,會發生什麼事呢?令人意外的是,他必須工作、運用他解決問題的技巧和金錢來改善這些貧窮村民的生活。
  國家地理頻道的《臥底天使》是由十個部分組成的特別節目,節目跟隨一些世上最有錢的人暗中祕密捨棄他們的豪宅換成小屋來生活。這個具開創性的節目讓有錢人能直接面對貧窮的真實情況。
  這些『天使』來自像是澳洲、南非、英國,及其他第一世界國家。他們習以為常的奢華生活不再,而且還把自己投入一些地球上最貧窮的地方,像是柬埔寨、尼泊爾和斯里蘭卡。與其給出一大筆現金,這些有錢人反而運用他們的知識本領和商業背景來創造永續的改變。這些努力大大改善他們走訪過的社區。這些天使開始進行提供乾淨水源、學習中心和其他更多的計劃。想知道更多他們遇到的挑戰的話,就要鎖定本月國家地理頻道感人的《臥底天使》。
