| Sponsoring a child in Nepal |
|
Sponsoring a child from one of our self-sustaining children homes can be a rewarding and heart full experience.
The sponsorship gives each child the chance to get the maximum level of school education that is available in Nepal. This gives them a better grounding in English and the main subjects required for college and further education - and a real chance to pass the *Iron Gate* SLC exams. We consider education as a main priority to create long-term options for the future of the children. The sponsorship covers the cost of the school fees, school uniforms, books, pens, school outings, incidental costs, and lunches. It will also cover one full medical check up per year and one set of casual clothes. For the ‘babies’ and pre-school children the sponsorship covers pre-school (baby school) and extras such as nappies and additional medical support as required. Sponsorship also gives you and the child a gift of connection – you can write directly to the child and she/he can feel the support directly. The older children are able to correspond back by letters. This gives you the opportunity to really experience the difference you can make by helping one person. It also gives the child the opportunity to have a friend who cares about their future and well being.
We do ask for a long term commitment for sponsorship for continuity for the child. As we are continuing to expand our children home projects there are always additional children joining our sponsor program. |
