Tamakoshi Rural Municipality is located around 150 km north of Kathmandu in Dolakha district in central Nepal. Due to its proximity to the Himalayan range, this region is cold. The people residing in the locality are poor and cannot afford additional warm clothes for their children. Because of lack of warm clothes, many children do not attend class regularly and also get sick. Since the winter season has started, ECCA arranged warm clothes for the school students studying from Early Childhood Development Center to Class 10. The dress consists of T-shirt, jacket and trousers all made from thick cloth (which keeps the body warm). The dress has just been stitched, packed and is ready for transport to the schools.
We thank you for your continued support.

Diya, a student in a school in Morang district, East Nepal comes from a low-income family. ECCA provided her education materials consisting of school bag, copy, fountain pen, dot pen, eraser, sharpener, geometric box. The recipient students were selected based on their family income, academic performance and the student’s engagement in Nature Club activities.
Diya shared “the supported education materials were very necessary to me because our new academic year just started. I was feeling sad to ask my parents to purchase educational materials for me because of their low income. With the support from ECCA, now, I have new bag, copies and stationeries which helps me to overcome my financial problem and makes it easy in my studies”.

Stationery materials were distributed to various schools in Bhirkot village, Tamakoshi Rural Municipality, Dolakha. This area was badly damaged during the April 2015 Nepal earthquake.
The stationery materials included school bag, copy, pen, dot pen, eraser, sharpener, geometric box (for students from Grade 7 to 12) and calculator (for students from Grade 9 to 12).
Mr. Rambir, Principal of Indrawoti Primary School, Bhirkot village expresses his views as follows:
“Our students are mainly from low economic level family. Most of them couldn’t afford the necessary education materials for their children to go to school. Because of this situation, the number of students attending school was low. After stationary materials support for students, I found increase in students’ attendance. The families and school are thankful for the support.”
