Support for Children at Risk

Dear Friends,

Greetings from NCRS!

West Rukum is one of the remotest district in Nepal. The 15 years Maoist insurgency left many woman widow and children orphanage. The poverty is very high there that the children attend school with bare foot, no proper clothes, school bag and meal. The infrastructure of the school is poor. Most of the schools have problems of safe drinking water. Sometimes the water is retrieved from contaminated sources have serious potential health implications. This situation has led to frequent outbreaks of water-borne diseases, which also further impacts their performance in school.

Amidst of this cataclysmic pandemic, we were able to distribute school dresses to fifty needy students of community schools and installed drinking water storage tank with child friendly water stand under donation from different donors in two schools which has made it easy for children of all age groups to drink water. In addition, this drinking water program has helped all the students to wash their hands frequently in the pandemic of covid-19. Hygiene and Sanitation trainings were provided which helped students to pay more attention on their personal hygiene and they are also aware and teach their junior and family members to improve wash and hygiene behavior. Still students are in great need of shoes, uniform, school bags and tiffin boxes which will be possible only through your support.

We NCRS family greatly appreciate your donation and support. It is said that "Children are the future of the nation", so providing them right environment for education helps them to motivate, engage and develop their overall learning ability. It would have not been possible to meet their needs with out your supports.

Thank you again for your ongoing support to the children at risk.

Sincerely Yours,

Babita Rai
