Scholarship project

Nepal is among the poorest and least developed countries in the world. Child sponsorship in Aanandit Charity is an effective way to give vulnerable children and poor communities a brighter future for developed Nepal. The goal of sponsorship is to improve the well-being of children. When a child gets a good education, it can alter their future for the better. Children need to grow up in a good environment that provides the essentials that they need for today and hope and opportunities for tomorrow. They need to be educated for life, be welcomed to participate in decisions that affect their lives and others.

ACC works with community groups and children themselves to plan and carry out changes so that more children will gain opportunities to fulfil their potential. This year, we are able to support 91 children 70 were general scholarships, 10 were for Dalit (low caste) students, and 10 children with disabilities received scholarships and 1 single women for their education and bright future ahead. We are very glad and thankful to our great God for all the sponsor children had passed their grade with good percentage. Out of this, more children had passed their (SEE) school Education Exam in good percentage and grade. We are very happy to see the progress and changes life of these hard working children.

Our Staff regularly follow up on our sponsored children, visit their families and schools to encourage and evaluate the progress. ACC project activities in communities benefit not just children registered for sponsorship but all children and their families in that community. ACC has various other projects which contributes for the whole community development. Please visit our main page to know more about them. This year we are supporting children from 3 districts of Nepal, namely Lalitpur, Sindhuli, and Sindhupalchowk.

We empower community schools where our sponsored children go with participating to develop libraries, building play yard, conduct educational and fun-filled activities, provide stationeries, computers, printers, and so on.
