Development projects in Nepal

In the village of Mankhu, there is a small primary school. It's not very good and too many children drop out of school early. At Her Farm (see project #9523) we're working to keep kids in school by offering a before and after school program that helps with homework and teaches them English as well. We also started day-care and early childhood education so that women no longer have to take their children with them in the fields while they work. We educate, we feed the children good meals.

Every year in Nepal thousands of girls, some as young as 9, are trafficked into exploitation and sexual abuse, their lives destroyed. We can prevent - and prevention is key - this modern slavery by educating girls. We go to the villages, find the girls most at risk, and give them all they need to stay in school - and safe. Education gives them confidence, value to their families and a future. The cost of this switch from dread to hope: $100 a year. That's how we Stop Girl Trafficking. Will you?
