Deusi Bhailo 2071

This year, we thought of celebrating Tihar by organizing a Deusi-Bhailo program at Naya Nepal Apanga Samaj, Old Baneshwor. We primarily went there and asked about their needs. They asked for food and we thought of supplying their rason with the money we collect by playing Deusi-Bhailo within ourselves and the kids residing at the Center.

#Mission16: We Celebrated Dashain at CVDC, Sankhu.

On 27th September, 2014 (Ashwin 11, 2071) We thought of organizing a Dashain get together program with #tfcians and at the mean time organise #Mission16 to support Conflict Victim and Disable Center (CVDC) located at Sankhu with food items.

CVDC is run by Mr. Yubaraj Thapa, a physically challenged but extremely determined and socially responsible Chairman. CVDC now holds 21 Children along with an elderly lady, all affected by Cerebral Palsy and other physical disorders.

In the donation handover program, children and the chairman thanked us with their precious smiles. We promised them to help however possible during further occasions when running the center gets critical regarding logistics and food. Mr. Thapa explained he began collecting such children straight from streets where they were left on streets to die.

In addition, police brings such children to the center too. He explained more about a child who was chained for 6 years in Chitwan has now improved a lot and acts very decent with regular care and love in the center. We would like to express our gratitude to such an amazing man with such great heart to help kids with such severe mental and physical disorders.

This was our way of celebrating #Dashain and We all are very happy that we could share our moments with the children at CVDC.

Few glimpses.

Final sum handed-over

Today, We along with Mr. Sameer Mani Dixit went to Saphalta Shikshya Sadan (SSS) to handover the final amount of NRs 1,20,000 committed to pay for the teachers' salary teaching at SSS for a year. This was the fourth trimester's amount NRs 30,000 payment scheme.


Mr. Dixit handing over the cheque to Mr. Rai

It is so good to see that Mr. Raj Kumar Rai and Uma Gurung's dream of creating a better home for HIV infected children have been transformed so well and is doing great towards achieving their dream. They have now begun the construction of school rooms made of bamboo in the near by land. Mr. Rai also explained that they will be teaching underprivileged children from nearby communities if they wish to study in their school, all free of cost. Hats off to the inspiration he carries on.


Mr. Raj Kumar Rai, founder chairman, SSS


We again would like to thank Mr. Sameer M. Dixit and Mrs. Lonim P. Dixit for supporting SSS for a year regarding the salary to the teachers there. You have been a true inspiration to people willing to support their societies however they can.
Please find details of the donation to SSS by Mr. Dixit here.

Thank you very much.

A request to support an initiation of "Educating Nepal"

Dear Friends,

'Educating Nepal' established by few of generous youths in our society have been working hard to make under privileged people aware about their capabilities and helping them to make their children educated in remote villages in Nepal, now concentrated in Majhi Gaaun, a remote village in Sindhupalchok district. EN believes Effective learning starts with a favorable learning environment and is dedicated to create a similar positive environment to the deprived children in Majhi Gaaun with a local school completely run by the local resources available then. 



This blog here is posted here to let you know that they are in need of our love and support. We are a group of different individuals of various professions, if we could be a little help to their dedication, that could be a great motivation towards the dedicated youths. If you are impressed with the idea, we could conduct a mission to serve the children with their basic needs for education in near future too. You can also sponsor a pupil a year whose total cost a year would be NRs 6000 per pupil as NRs 500 per month is the unit cost for a child. 
We are looking forward to hear from you soon.

Respected Sir,
Educating Nepal is pleased to submit this request for your review. We look forward to your cooperation in building the community of Jholunge Basti, Majhi Gaun, Bhotsippa-9, Sindupalchowk.
Educating Nepal is a youth-led non-government organization dedicated to making the children from every corner of Nepal literate, learned and wise. The organization started in 2009, when three young people with a noble initiative started teaching a few kids from Majhi Gaun, Sindhupalchowk. The numbers slowly increased and a school was founded in 2010. Educating Nepal was formally registered as an NGO on December 21, 2012.
We at Educating Nepal believe that every child has the right to free education. To be able to expand one’s knowledge and become an independent, responsible and a successful citizen is every Nepali’s birthright. We want to make this dream come true because we care about them. We want the children, regardless of caste, creed or wealth to get equal treatment. We want the children to be trained in all aspects of hygiene, national and global awareness as well as information technology.
Our initial requirements are stable classrooms to provide a good learning environment, hostel facilities for volunteers to make learning smooth and as many educational materials as possible. For this, we have allocated a total fund of Rs 3 million. The immediate need is a concrete building for which budget of Rs 1.5 million has been allocated and we have collected Rs 750,000 so far. The number of students is steadily growing and this has only been possible through generosity of people like you.
Your support in this initiative will be highly appreciated. You are one driving catalyst to a required change in Nepal.

Warm Regards,

………………………….
Aashish Ghimire                                                         
(Director Member)      
Vision
We envision a prosperous nation with an all-round development in areas such as health, wealth and environment made possible by formal, non-formal and informal education, and through mass participation of youths who are impelled in their own right to conceive righteously the significance of philanthropy and social responsibility.
Mission Statement
Educating Nepal is committed to bringing about social reforms primarily by educating children—especially the underprivileged, not only the children with the ability to read and write, but those with the ability to have an open mind and to acquire the right skills to move forward.
Objectives
We thrive on the following three aspects of education for the underprivileged children and the community as a whole
Education
Ø  Academic Curriculum
Ø  Value Education
Ø  IT Education
With the following objectives, we plan to meet our goal      
·         To initiate schools in the remote areas of Nepal, and to provide free quality education for the underprivileged and deprived children of Nepal, especially of the backward communities;
·         To help derive a curriculum  prioritizing value education ;
·         To provide IT training and to take such a technology to remote areas of Nepal;                  
·         To offer financial or technical support to the public or community schools of Nepal;
·         To utilize local resource and labor to provide free education to the children;
·      To provide health and sanitation education, environmental education, and employment-oriented skills and education as part of our mission of educating Nepal; and to conduct relevant awareness programs;
·         To build auxiliary infrastructure like a library to facilitate learning; and
·         To conduct various fund raising and awareness programs.


The need
Pictures, stories, news often speak of the reality of Nepal. At one side, we see how simplicity is actually blissful; but we also see the harsh reality underneath.
The villages of Nepal do not have all the facilities that the modern world provides. It lacks all the basic infrastructure needs. And in this process, the innocent faces are also affected. They don’t have access to the most basic form of education.  There may be a school founded but there are no proper classrooms. There are children who think that computer is an alien creature while kids in other parts demand for an ipad. There may be a school but no one teaches them the right thing. Apart from that, the children themselves are lost in taking care of household chores that their basic right gets lost somewhere. The consequences of this could just be a sad photograph for now. But in the long run, we just lose invaluable resources that could develop our country. In addition, where even the well educated people are easily getting involved in disgraceful activities, malfeasance or simply not utilizing knowledge in day to day life and recurrently falling into ethical traps, our value education campaign is apt to rejuvenate the young minds with proper conscience exhorted by resolute sense of morality.
This is a harsh reality that we must pay heed now before we lose another batch of precious human resource. And it’s time we do something from our part and hope for a better tomorrow. We are but a drop in the ocean. Why not make that drop a significant one?
The solution
"Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, what are you doing for others?"
Martin Luther King rightly said it. The solution is to look out for opportunities to do things for others. The solution now lies in education. Educating Nepal is seeking out opportunities to solve this crucial problem.
The solution lies in raising funds more funds, marketing ourselves so we can form a good base.  A good foundation needs a lot of support from notable people and organization. You are a part of us and our solution.
The solution lies in bringing up new ideas to ensure that the community is sustainable. The solution lies in giving what you have. It can be anything in cash, kind or service. You can help in terms of Educational resources, human resource, ideas, and opportunities to help us grow. You will be doing a lot this way.



Project Description
EN currently requires funding to develop and grow itself as a stronger entity. The team is very energetic to take a more stable start. Effective learning starts with a favorable learning environment. The initial focus of Educating Nepal is to develop an environment favorable to both students and teachers. Therefore, our project mostly focuses on laying a strong foundation.
As our start-up project, we are limited to Majhi Gaun. Majhi Gaun is translated literally as the village of fishermen. Children had been struggling to go to school because of two major difficulties, one being the distance and the other social issues.  The nearest school was a two hour walk which is almost impossible for an eight year old.  Furthermore, the particular school is operated by Brahmins, a supposedly higher caste.  This futile social issue further reduces their chances of attending school due to the limitations of caste system.
Under the watchful guidance of EN, the number of student has steadily increased and Suryodaya Prathamik School was formally registered as a community school in 2010, which is providing quality education to 120 students. The classrooms in there are built with a temporary wooden design using local resources. The current project is aimed at building a more stable framework and classrooms. A hostel facility is also needed for the incoming volunteers and teachers as a good lodging facility will increase the flow of full time teachers. Thus, eventually take us nearer to our goal.
Apart from that, we are also keen on developing educational resources like computers, books, notebooks or any sort of educational materials. We want to build an IT lab in the long run to make information and knowledge more accessible. We at Education Nepal aim to go where children do not have access to proper education.


Target Market and Geographical area
Education for all is our mantra. Our target is anywhere where education and awareness are not available.
We at Education Nepal aim to go where children do not have access to proper education. However, as our startup project, we are limited to Majhi Gaun. Majhi Gaun is translated literally as the village of fishermen. Children have been struggling to go to school because of two major difficulties, one being the distance and the other social issues.  The nearest school is a two hour walk which is almost impossible for an eight year old.  Furthermore, the particular school is operated by Brahmins, a supposedly higher caste.  This futile social issue further reduces their chances of attending school due to the limitations of caste system.
We want to create a model system there and start exploring other areas to provide our service.
To be more specific, we are now targeted in Majhi Gaun in Sindhupalchowk district. Our target population is 65 households with 150 children.
Description of Organization
Educating Nepal is a youth-led non-governmental organization. It is a tax-exempted entity, registered under Organization Registration Act 2034, section(4) and affiliated to Social Welfare Council under section 14 of Social Welfare Act 2049 working towards educating underprivileged and deprived children free of cost, thereby enabling them to a better tomorrow. It is a team of energetic youths aspiring to contribute something for the country’s future.
Educating Nepal is an initiative that started in 2009 and was formally registered as a non government organization on December 21, 2012. The organization is focused on providing a platform for over all development of children in terms of empirical knowledge, information and skills governed by ethics. Our aspiration lies in going to areas where the communities are helpless, where the 21st generation facilities have not reached yet; still there are people who want to do something.
We are currently focusing our work in Majhi Gaun. But we aim to spread to other communities and move closer to calling Nepal a 100% educated nation.

Strategic plan to meet our goal
Educating Nepal has 9 founding members in the Executive Committee who work in awareness raising and managing projects of EN. Each EN project comprises a community taskforce, which looks after the activities of EN projects. The functioning of Community taskforce is divided into three parts i.e. Community School Board, Youth Wing and Cooperative (development work). Each of these functioning bodies is recognized for the sustainability of the school in the project area and for empowerment of the local people. The Community School Board has been created with the local people for management of the education system in the project area. The board manages the hiring of staffs and teachers, providing materials to the students and running day to day activities of the school among other works. The youth wing, a congregation of youths of the community are empowered through various skill oriented trainings or voluntary activities in the project thereby creating opportunities of self-employment or employment in the project. The final and one of the major activities of the taskforce is establishment of cooperative with major objective of securing financial needs of the school and working for welfare of the community. The aforementioned cooperative examines the local potential and launches effective agricultural and farming programs offering employment, business and investment environment. The predetermined portion of the profit received from the cooperative will be utilized in managing the school and ICT program so that it will function without the help of EN in the long run.  EN will work for the inception while the management and sustainability of the community school will be maintained by the community itself.
This planning structure will lead to prosperous community through literacy and developmental activities. After achieving a prosperous community, EN will move forward to next project following similar structure to inspire other communities.
History
Our story began in 2058. The credit goes to three people, Mr Hari Krishna Bhattarai, Mr Binod Basnet and Mr Ashirwad Tripathy. Mr Bhattarai initially started teaching one child from Majhi Gaun. Later he saw that two more children were interested. This small personal project turned into a passion in three young people. They wanted the entire village to open up to education, wisdom and awareness like these three little ones. Thus began the journey of Educating Nepal.
Educating Nepal started in Majhi Gaun. The village is in Bhotsippa-9, Village Development Committee (VDC) which is located 80 kilometers east of Kathmandu. The distance is not much but you see real life there.
The entire village had one only person, Mr Balbahadur Majhi who had graduated 10th grade, known in Nepal as the School Leaving Certificate (SLC). He was proud of his achievement and was willing to shoulder the responsibility of giving the same opportunity to the children in his village. With the help of Educating Nepal, Balbahadur has been looking after the construction and administration of the school.
