Warm through the winter - 950 children in Nepal received new school uniforms
January 10, 2024
Thanks to your support, over 900 children from 7 public schools in the poor communities in Gokarneshwor region received new winter school uniforms between November 2023 and January 2024.

In Nepal, students are required to wear school uniforms. The same style of clothes worn by everyone hides the differences in the socio-economic situations of children’s families and allows them to focus on the lessons better. A good idea in theory, which in the Nepalese context sometimes backfires. The state itself doesn’t bear the cost of this uniform, and the poorest families may not be able or willing to bear it either.
Under the burden of this expense, usually together in combination with other unfavorable factors, families sometimes make a devastating decision to prematurely discontinue the school attendance of their children. Knowing that a cost of one such uniform can be as low as 10 euros, this is where we step in and cover the costs for children’s uniforms in multiple schools typically attended by the children from the poorest families.
Having a school uniform provides access to education, helps them to stay warm in the winter and renews their awareness that someone considers them important and cares about their future.
