Backed by an education, a child can change the world they live in. Knowledge seeps into every area of their lives–their health, confidence, ambition, and of course, their future. Your Better World Gift means educational support for a child in Nepal who is eager to learn. An education goes far beyond school–it can mean better health outcomes, protection against harmful practices, a secure livelihood and more.

Kasmitha was often absent from school because she worked with her mother as a daily wage labourer. Money was scarce for her family, and they couldn’t afford a school uniform or study materials. In her community, skipping school for work is common for children from families facing economic struggle.
After joining a Child Club run by our Partner in Nepal, Kasmitha learnt about hygiene, child rights, and the importance of education. She now attends school regularly and is provided with educational support. When Kasmitha became president of her club, she organised meetings to teach other children in the community important lessons, and to help them with their homework.
‘I am a girl who almost dropped out of school, now I am going regularly, and I have a dream of becoming a social worker,’ Kasmitha said.
