Dear All Donros, Namaste !
Himalayan Hope Home,Located in Kathmandu, this large home, built by The Small World in 2012, completely supports thirty (30) at risk girls ranging from three to sixteen years of age with safety and security; an education that includes learning English to prepare them for college; all meals, clothing, and medical care; and, just as importantly, a very kind, supportive, and loving family oriented environment. Each girl is taught self-sufficiency from an early age in taking care of day to day needs, such as washing her own clothes and keeping her room and the home neat and clean. In such ways, each girl learns self-reliance and self-respect. Their lives are totally changed from the poverty and vulnerability that would have meant a future of forced labor, abuse, illiteracy, forced early marriage with complete dependence on a husband with responsibility for his family as well as theirs, or being trafficked into international sex slavery, for which there are 20,000 to 30,000 girls victimized every year in Nepal.
Thank you very much for your investment in Girls Education in Nepal. Educating girls in developing country like Nepal is the most powerful and effective way to address majority of problem that girls are facing like poverty, inequality, abuse, neglect, exploitation & trafficking. With your help we can give many more girls the opportunity to change their lives and those of their families.
Once again, thank you very much and Namaste !
