We are thrilled to share a heartwarming milestone from the field— on the Send a Girl to High School with a Bicycle Gift project, one that reflects the power of your generosity and the dreams it helps set in motion.
On 17 November 2025, the Janaki Women Awareness Society (JWAS) proudly distributed 81 bicycles to 81 determined schoolgirls at Shree Janata Jaayasawal Secondary School in Ganeshman Charnath Municipality, Ward No. 6, Godar, Dhanusha, Nepal. This joyful event was part of our ongoing initiative, the “Send a Girl to High School with a Bicycle Gift Project”, made possible through your kind contributions.
These bicycles—donated by Thomas & Friends through Vicente Ferrer Stiftung gGmbH (VFS)—are more than just a means of transport. They are a lifeline to education, safety, and opportunity. For girls like Priti, an eighth grader, the impact is immediate and profound:
“Before the bicycle, I walked so far that I reached school tired and sometimes late. Now I arrive on time, and I feel safe. I can study well and dream big.”
Her words echo the aspirations of many girls who, thanks to your support, can now pursue their education without the burden of long, exhausting commutes. These bicycles are helping to reduce school dropouts and early marriages by making secondary education more accessible and secure for girls in rural communities.
This achievement is not just ours—it’s yours. Your continued support has turned a vision into reality, and together, we are creating ripples of change that will last for generations.
As we celebrate this success, we remain committed to reaching even more girls who are waiting for their chance to ride toward a brighter future. We deeply value your partnership, warmly welcome your feedback, and are happy to provide any additional information you may require.
Thank you once again for your invaluable support.
With heartfelt gratitude,
