Education - Hope Mobilization

We believe that education PROTECTS and LIBERATE

Access to education has always been the strongest way to protect children and teens from high risk situations. In both Nepal and India, we have seen that education is the key to protection. In the villages of Nepal, we see that children who can study are dramatically less susceptible to human trafficking.

Education brings dignity not only to the child but to the whole family. Fathers and mothers can dream of a future and hope for their children. In India, we have seen that in addition to protection, education offers a way for children to be free from prejudice and limiting caste structures. We believe that awareness, access to education and well trained teachers, are the heart of community development.

SCHOLARSHIP

This work consists of distributing scholarships, which cover costs of required uniforms and school supplies to at-risk children and teens in regions prone to human trafficking. We have learned that families are greatly encouraged to protect their children from trafficking when there is hope through education. Hand in hand with the distribution of scholarships in each village, is an invitation for local residents to attend the Human Trafficking Prevention Program, which is designed to increase awareness of the issues of human trafficking and sexual slavery.

SCHOOL

We are fully responsible for supporting and operating the Shristi Gyan Secondary School in Kathmandu. This school benefits children and adolescents sheltered in the homes of Nepalese Home Program as well as the local community. The school has been in existence since 2009 and has been a benchmark in quality as its students have been 100% successful in passing the Nepalese Government’s final secondary education exam. The school serves students from the nursery to the last year of high school (grade 10).
