Buy Chickens for street children in Nepal

Following their trip to Goa in India, 4 of ours boys have already returned there and started to work at luxury resorts. They are doing so well, learning what it means to be independent and earning good income. Most importantly they are being training in a variety of roles and that will give them opportunities in the future for even better employment. We are so proud of them!

2 more boys will be joining them at some point soon after all their paperwork (citizenships papers) is finished. This might take some time as due to their backgrounds the government is not accepting all of their family paperwork. As a result the boys are stuck in a limbo, not even being able to open a bank account or getting a driving licence. But we are working hard to sort it out so we are hoping that they will be able to go to Goa in a month or two. 

8 boys started their college now and 2 more are continuing into their 2nd year. They are really enjoying their studying and that makes us all very very happy. We are sure they will achieve a lot in their lives!

All the children at the children's home also started their new school year back in April and all are very serious about their studies. But they do love their Friday and Saturday evenings when the dance teacher comes and they can work on their magic moves! The boys are also doing a lot of activities with the children from our Child Helpline - they always celebrate all the festivals together (and there are many of those in Nepal), play sports together and just spend time together. 

With the monsoon coming to an end, we'll be planting some more amazing veggies in our garden - photos to follow in the next report! We are hoping for a bit less wildlife soon as well in our garden - we had a very beautiful but very dangerous cobra going for a stroll next to our home the other day. Luckily, we managed to catch the snake and release it into the wild. 

Thank you so much for all the support. All your help means that the boys can have a future that they deserve. Thank you. 

Can you imagine seeing the sea for the first time? Seeing dolphins swimming near you for the first time? Trying surfing for the first time? This is what our oldest boys experienced just a few weeks ago. After finishing their basic education the boys got treated to an amazing trip to Goa in India where they got to experience different lifestyle, playing football and volleyball on the beach with the local children, trying different food and spending quality time with each other. 

And from most exciting news - 6 oldest boys found employment in Goa at beautiful, very good resorts. They will be starting in the summer with very supportive employers so they will be able to do their college remotely and then attend their exams in Nepal next April. The college starts in June this year so they are now preparing all the needed paperwork for their work, and those who will not be going to India are now looking into starting work in Nepal. We are so proud of them! Time really flies - difficult to believe that not long ago they were tiny children learning how to read and write. 

We had a few more younger children joining our children's home so the home is full of laughter and new children getting used to their new life and school. Everyone is happily assisting with daily feeding and looking after the chickens and the garden. The home looks truly beautiful now. 

A massive thank you to everyone who is supporting us - without that support, none of this would be possible. The boys who just a few years ago were living on the streets now have chances for a really great future. And most importantly - they got the childhood that they all deserved! Thank you!
