Thanks to you, 25 children just received new school uniforms. All of these children come from the poorest families in the village, families that cannot afford the costs of uniforms, shoes or school supplies. Because of your help with this project they now have all new uniforms. The uniforms were made locally in the village by the local tailor, so there's an added benefit of additional income for the village. Our volunteers were on hand the day the uniforms were ready to be delivered and helped distribute them to the children. There are more children who still need our help. Providing support like uniforms and school supplies is the surest way to keep them in school, especially the girls. Families in Nepal are much more willing to scrape money together for boys education than they are girls. Some of the children in the attached photos are boys. They are from families so poor that the money can't be found even for the education of their sons.
