UPDATE: Thank you! We achieved our fund-raising target, and more!
One year after we adopted our first government school, and survived the massive earthquakes that struck Nepal, we’ve achieved record-breaking exam results and a 43% increase in students.
We couldn’t have achieved it without your support.
If you would like to continue to support our students, we are currently raising money to pay for our new maths teacher, Rabi Maharjan (see photo below).
Rabi is an outstanding maths teacher, who we have hired to improve maths teaching in our school.
To pay his salary for one year, we need to raise £1860. Investing in good teachers is the single most effective way to improve a school.
