Through connections with Lane Cove Rotary Club and Rotarian Patrick Price, we were able to collaborate with CLCR Nepal. This collaboration assisted us to supply 300 school bags and educational materials to 300 disadvantaged and marginalized students in Bhaktapur, Ramechhap & Sindhuli districts.
Many of these students had never owned a backpack. They proudly trudged to school in rain, hail and shine for up to 2 hours carrying their tattered school books. As the school year starts their new books (supplied by The Didi Foundation) are protected in their bags. 2021-22 sees their educational journey off to a positive start.

The Didi Foundation collaborated with CLCR Nepal to deliver 300 backpacks and school writing books to disadvantaged school students in remote areas of Nepal.
Regardless of having to walk up to two hours in all weather conditions, to get to school, most of these students had never owned a school bag, Therefore, their school books were often damaged. Two of these remote schools were in the Ramechhap and Sindhuli districts and the other school is in Bhaktapur.
The Didi Foundation has had a long relationship with the school in Ramechhap which we rebuilt after the 2015 earthquake. Since then we have annually supplied the school with educational resources.
Didi Foundation has supported the Bhaktapur School for many years by supplying uniforms, educational resources, technology, and a school feeding program.
Education is the road out of poverty.
