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.

Below you can read about some children that are awaiting sponsors.

Abishka Thapa

Abishka Thapa

Age: 2 years old

Class: PG

Abishka Thapa is a 2-year-old girl, born to Amir Thapa and Bhawani Achhami. Bhawani, a single mother, lives in Lalitpur district with her parents, while her husband’s family is from Banepa.

Bhawani got married at the age of 15. She was born with a physical disability affecting her leg. After five years of marriage, her husband left her and married another woman, blaming her physical challenges. This led Bhawani into depression, and she required medication. Later, she attended church but was sexually abused by a person there, causing her to stop going, although her parents continued attending.

At 21, Bhawani met a man through Facebook and married him within three weeks. Coming from a Dalit community, she faced abuse from her husband’s family for her caste. Her husband, a drug addict, had been to jail several times and eventually died while incarcerated, leaving Bhawani pregnant with Abishka. After his death, Bhawani was kicked out by her husband’s family and returned to live with her own family.

Bhawani receives no support from her family and sells small items on the street (Nanglo Pasal), earning 4-5 hundred rupees per day. She uses her earnings to pay for her daughter’s school fees and food, managing with great difficulty.

Alisha and Ashisha Malla

Name: Alisha Malla                      Ashisha Malla

Age: 12                                                           9

Garde: 3                                                         1

School: Mount Valley School Address: Dhapasi, Lalitpur

Mugu is a rural area where many people die without treatment. Many women and girls get married at a young age, leading to tragic outcomes. Some mothers and sisters have lost their lives due to early childbirth, while others have died during childbirth due to malnutrition.

Family Background: Alisha is a girl who grew up in this challenging environment. Born into a family struggling with financial hardship and poverty, her household often faced food shortages and had no land to cultivate. Relatives took away their small farm, adding to their difficulties.

Alisha’s parents, who did not receive much education, found it hard to get jobs. Her father struggled to support the family. Despite their lack of education, her parents wanted Alisha and her brother to have better opportunities, so they arranged for them to stay in a children’s home in Kathmandu through an acquaintance.

Alisha and her brother, Ashish Malla, got the opportunity to stay in a children’s home and study at a good school. Alisha in Class 3, and Ashish is in Class 1 at Mount Valley School. Recently, their parents moved to Kathmandu after finding village life unbearable. They now work as helpers in a vegetable shop.

These parents, who left the village to provide a better life for their children, are now determined to keep their children with them and educate them which is far better than any hostel. However, low incomes and the high cost of living in Kathmandu pose significant challenges. As their son and daughter also wish to live with their parents, they have applied for support from the Aanandit Charity Center. We would love to see them live together as a family which is possible only by our support.
