Rehabilitation for 50 Children with Disabilities

We are grateful to all of the donors who have continued to support Nepal's needy children with disabilities. With 306 donations, you have given us more than $36,000 to date. We look forward to your continued support in the days ahead. Even in the worst case scenario of COVID-19, we are able to provide the essential support to the children. THANK YOU VERY MUCH AGAIN! 

RE-OPENING SCHOOL WITH BUS

The school was closed from April 2020 to January 2021 due to COVID-19. Students were unable to attend school in that situation. We were able to include a few people via video chat, but we were unable to run online classes due to the state of the students. During discussions with parents about the school's opening in February 2021, some parents stated that they would not send their children to school and only a few parents agreed to send their children who took COVID vaccination. After that, we began to run a school before COVID, but only a small number of students attended.

On April 19, 2022 we held a short meeting with parents of disabled children. We talked about how to start class after COVID and make it more beneficial for the children. We talk about how to run the bus safely. In addition, parents committed to send their children to school. The number of students attending school has increased. They tell how they feel when they return to school after a lengthy absence and are delighted to see their friends. We started working on fine motor abilities in our new class session. Children can access so many more things and become more confident and capable as their fine motor skills improves. They gain independence in a variety of tasks, including as eating, writing, and speaking. We encourage children to participate in extracurricular activities such as singing, dance, and art. They appreciate being a part of such activities and have a lot of fun.

"I enjoy to come to school every day," one of our kids, told us. She enjoys new experiences and enjoys playing with her buddies. She couldn't share anything with her classmates during lockdown, so when she returned, she was delighted to see her old friends."

We are happy to write you that now those children come from bus are also attending school now and hope, with the low incidence rate of COVID-19, we will be able to operate our school in full capacity in near future.

GREAT THANK YOU TO ALL THE DONORS.WITHOUT SUPPORT FROM WHOM THESE ACTIVITES AND SERVICES WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN POSSIBLE.

We hope for your support during the days to come. Even in the COVID-19 worse situation, we are successful in providing the necessary support to the children. This is possible because of your support. GREAT THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN!

              Here is a brief description of the support programs:

Blanket distribution to Children with Disabilities 

This time blanket is distributed to children with disabilities according to their needs. Currently, Kathmandu is facing cold weather. The temperature went down nearly to zero degrees. To be safer from cold weather, CBR provided 60 Children with Disabilities with blankets. The blankets were distributed in presence of local government authorities and well-wishers.        

Meeting with Local Government and Parent to Re-open Physical class for Children with Disabilities

Due to the present situation, the organization was not able to run the daycare class for children with disabilities in full capacity. But this time, a meeting with the local government and Children with Disabilities parents has been arranged to run the physical class. Most of the parents are supporting running the physical daycare class. A certain rule is that those who got the covid-19 vaccine agree to take them but for those who do not have the covid-19 vaccine, we are not taking them. We manage the class in alternative ways. But we could not able to run the bus due to less number of children with disabilities students. However, we are planning to start in the mid-month of Magh 1 Feb 2022 using safety protocol. We arrange parents meeting to discuss running the class in a systematic way and normal way. With this class, that children with disabilities will be able to engage in some activities to make their brains busy and make them happy.

One of the students has expressed that “In the corona pandemic, I was being very frustrate and anger but after the school reopen I am very happy and enjoying every moment with my friend”  

Home Visit Counselling and physiotherapy

Home visit counselling and physiotherapy were done with our expertise. At this time most of the parents of children with disabilities went into depression due to the job loss and tension of the current situation. So, counselling services have also been provided. Also, some got physiotherapy at home. Altogether, 5 home visits along with counselling services have been provided to the families of Children with Disabilities.
