Helps rural Nepalese girls have a better future

Helps rural Nepalese girls have a better future

Based in Kathmandu, Udana Nepal helps 14 Nepalese girls have a better future. The girls come from remote rural areas, with limited access to an education, with a risk of exclusion. Girls and women from these areas are an easy target for traffickers and some of them are even sold by their own people with the hope of acquiring a better life.

One of the biggest challenge these girls face is changing the stigma around their gender, merely a subject needed for reproduction and work. We believe that through education, they can become financially independent without the need to marry in order to survive. Udana Nepal provides the girls with shelter, food, medicines, etc, and cover their education and all their basic needs in Kathmandu.

“We are so thrilled and grateful to learn about Tenzing Piton’s Trust's generous contribution. Your donation will hugely help all our girls to continue with their education, for example, Anisha and Gyanu, who just finished their final Year 12 exams, could go to College/University in Kathmandu-Nepal.

Your kind sponsorship will increase the girl’s chances, like Anisha & Gyanu, to be financially independent, to have the freedom to choose who and when to marry (if that is what they want) and to decide for themselves what they want to be in life.

Our girls come from very remote, rural areas where house work, working the land and arranged marriages from an early age, among other things, are common practices. Without donations and contributions like yours, we will not be able to help these girls have an education and further their studies in a safe environment in Kathmandu-Nepal.

Our mission is to provide all our girls with the tools to enable them to grow and develop to the best they can be so they can contribute to their country’s growing, social, political and economic development while having a positive impact on various issues like gender inequality, social discrimination, child labour, sex violence to mention a few.

We would like to thank again, Tenzing’s Piton Trust, for helping us give these girls a chance to pursue their dreams.”
