Buy Chickens for street children in Nepal

As usual the atmosphere at our children's home is really fun and loving.

Our poor chicken lost his ladies due to a disease and as we are about to get him some new chicken friends, he decided to make friends with all the other animals at the home. So a daily sight over there is chicken eating together with the dogs (he even enjoyed parts of our pancakes) and then playing with the dogs and the baby buffalo. At night the buffaloes go to their bamboo house (where they have their own light, fan and some fire to keep the mosquitoes away) and the dogs and the chicken have permanently moved into the home and all sleep in the hallway. Not always that much fun when the chicken confuses day and night time and starts waking everyone up at 2am but everyone seems to have got used to that. 

The boys are wonderful at looking after all the animals - it teaches them responsibility and caring for others. 

It's exams time again for our boys and they are all taking it very seriously - they keep an eye on time whilst playing and then they say 'we have to stop now as time for studying'. We're all really proud of them. After the exams the older boys will get some more work experience at a car mechanic workshop and a nice cafe - and they can't wait to get some new skills. 

We have now welcomed another new boy. Although he has only been with us for about 2 weeks, he seems to be acclimatizing very well and is starting his school shortly. 

We will update you on their results and also on the progress with everything else at the home. 

And thank you again for all your support!

The summer has arrived in Nepal and it is VERY hot at the moment with temperatures in Birgunj exceeding 40 degrees every day. Our children start their school very early at 6am and finish early as well as otherwise sitting in classrooms with no fans during the hottest part of the day would be unbearable. 

Our buffaloes are getting their cold showers twice a day and are loving those! New vegetables have been planted so our garden should be very green very soon. 

From some really exciting news - we have welcomed 4 new street boys to the Our Sansar children's home. Our boys are making sure that their new friends are feeling a part of their new family. They are settling in very well and will be starting school shortly. It's so lovely to see the smiles on their faces and we hope we can provide them with a bright future. 

Also, we have recently arranged a work experience placement for our Subash, first one ever in his life. We placed him at a car mechanic workshop in Kathmandu for one week and he loved it and everyone at the workshop loved and greatly appreciated his work there. Now Subash wants to open his own workshop in the future and we are definitely planning on making this dream come through one day. 

Some more exciting news coming up shortly and we will keep you all updated with what is happening on the ground.

And as always, thank you so much for all your support!
