It’s another month of medical checkup for our beloved children residing at Susta Manasthiti Purnasthapana Kendra at Kharelthok, Kavre. Wellbeing of these children is a crucial concern for NJSI.

This time, Dr. Anil Ojha, who has specialized as development pediatrician from Australia examined health condition of our 20 children on 22nd August 2018. He monitored and explained the needs of each child to their parents and the caretaker of the center, Ms. Sudha Silwal. He has recommended regular speech therapy, physiotherapy, intake of protein rich food and thyroid examination. NJSI looks forward to maintaining better health of these children and is thankful to Caritas Italy for their compassionate support.

100 students attend Narayansthan Basic School located at Panchkhal, Kavre. Almost all of them come from poor family, unable to support even the basic educational supplies. They come to school in torn clothes carrying old books and notebooks in the bags stitched at every corner. Poverty has also led to dropout of many students at the school.

With the support of Xavier Network, NJSI distributed 100 school uniforms, tracksuits, bags, sharpeners and erasers each, 1500 notebooks, 1200 pencils, 8 white boards and 58 geometry boxes on 17th August 2018. The students happily loaded their new bags with these materials.

NJSI is hopeful that having adequate educational supplies, they will be motivated to continually attend the school and study diligently. The principal of the school, Tika Bahadur Kafle, thanks NJSI for the support and anticipates further engagement in enhancing the quality of education at the school.
