Teach Rural Girls in Jumla to Write their Names

Nepal is one of the least developed countries in the world and 1/3 of the population - mostly from rural areas - live in absolute poverty with limited access to basic amenities or schooling. Girl children are often denied schooling (63% literacy for boys and only 35% for girls). Programs focusing on rural girls will build a foundation to improve women's lives in rural Jumla - a remote rural district recovering from the 10 year civil war. Teaching girls basic literacy will lead them to education.
