ECCA provided stationery materials along with school bag to 33 students of Krishi Udaya Primary School, Patan. Needy students from marginalized family were selected in coordination with the school management. The families of these students were having hard time to pay for the education of these children, and the school Principal requested ECCA for the support.
One of the students shared that, in his family there were 6 children; so his family was not able to afford the cost of stationery. He was coming to school hoping that somebody would provide support him. He heartily thanked the donors for supporting his study.
ECCA is also thankful to all for the supported provided.
Stationery Kit distribution took place in June 2018 for 519 students of five schools of ward number 1 (Bhirkot village), Tamakoshi Rural Municipality, Dolakha. This area was badly damaged during the April 2015 Nepal earthquake.
The students were from ECD (Early Childhood Development) class to grade 12 of the following five schools:
The stationery kit included school bag, copy, pen, dot pen, eraser, sharpener, geometric box (only for students from Grade 7 to 12) and calculator (only for students from Grade 9 to 12).
The supported stationery materials helped the students and their families, as their families are still struggling financially to rebuild their damaged houses. The provided materials were also a motivation factor for the parents to send their children to school. They were relieved and glad that they now do not require to spend their money to buy stationery materials for their children.
We thank you for your continued support.
On February 14, 2018 (Valentine Day), ECCA provided stationery materials for children of Nawa Kiran Bal Ashram, a children home located in Lalitpur district. One hundred copies, several boxes of pencils, erasers and sharpners were provided to the children on that day.
This children home has been supporting abandoned, orphan, destitute and other helpless children by providing shelter, education, medical care and vocational training so that they can be good and independent citizens. Currently, 55 children are staying in this children home.
"Our home has been getting support from individuals and organizations for day-to-day operation", shared one of the caretakers. "This support will also help our children to learn".
Although the support was not in large scale, we were able to motivate the children to study harder.
And, we are really thankful for your support.
ECCA recently distributed WASH (water, sanitation and hygiene) materials to 5 community schools of Dolakha district. The support included materials like water filter, filter stands, water bottles, dustbins, dustpans, first aid kits etc.
ECCA has been working with school nature clubs and other school stakeholders for improving the school environment. The schools lacked basic needs such as water purification devices, sanitation materials, first aid kit.
"Last month, one of our students met an accident and we had to carry him and rush to the nearest health post. As we did not even have simple first aid medicine, the situation was really difficult for us", shared principal of one of the schools.
Such difficulty is expected to lessen. Now, each school has a first aid kit box.
Moreover, none of the schools had proper water purifying system. Students have been drinking water carelessly from the tap itself or wherever they get. Now, each classroom is provided with stainless steel filter fitted with silver colloidal ceramic candle which is capable of removing protozoans along with turbidity.
Also, to help the schools to improve their sanitation, dustbins, dustpans and brooms were provided for each class.
An orientation was provided to the school clubs and teachers before the distribution, such that the materials can be used efficiently and carefully.
We thank you for your support.
Shree Palanchok Bhagwati Secondary School of Panchkhal Municipality-09, Kavrepalanchok is one of the schools lying in earthquake affected regions of Nepal. Even before the earthquake, the students did not have easy learning environment.
With only 152 students, the school has many students from low economic background, who have been struggling to attend school. Parents often engage their children in agricultural works now and then, as support to the family. According to the locals, children belonging to poor economic background often have lesser chance of being regularly sent to school as parents hesitate to invest in their education.
So, as a part of educational support for children, ECCA provided 12 "All in One" book to students of class Nursery to Class 3. "All in One" is a package book for elementary grade students, which has chapters of different subjects, thus providing a large range of knowledge.
“We are really thankful for the support”, says one of the teachers. “The books will also be helpful for us to teach them and for the students as motivation to attend school.”
Coordination with the school was done through a youth group called SOFIC Nepal.
ECCA is really thankful for the support. Your continuous support will help us support larger number of students.
