Gokyo Treks & Expedition (P) Ltd Charity Trip:
Gokyo Treks & Expedition (P) Ltd are big supporters of the local community. We believe in giving back something to ensure a promising future for the children of our country. We support various projects in and around Kathmandu, but by running our own charity trip we have a special project to fund in mind. The beautiful children at Ghyampeswori Primary School in Nuwakot District.
Ghyampeswori Primary School in Nuwakot District. is a small school which has been established in the area to give the local children a chance to receive an education. Actually this place is on remote area where has no road accessibility. In this area the people are farmers and some of them are very poor. The aim of the school is to be able to provide an education to the children of these farming families at no cost to them. In most cases families simply cannot afford to pay to send their children to school, so from a very young age they end up working on the farm doing very hard and strenuous work. Without receiving a basic education there is not much hope for the future of such children.
The community has set up the school with little help from the government. The government has provided two teacher only and until recently we had another one more teacher funded by an overseas source who has since withdrawn their funding, now the school has three teacher altogether. In the beginning the school was very humble with only a few students, now days it has grown to accommodate nearly 145 students. Three teacher can not effectively teach this many students on a day to day basis. Also the school has five small rooms, but there are not enough benches and tables, texts books and teaching equipment to run the classes properly. The school is run with three classes and as the teacher can only be in one room at a time, the rest of the children must sit around and wait for their instruction.
Our aim for running this trip is to raise enough money to fund another teacher for one year. Hopefully we can run our trips regularly to keep the teacher at the school permanently and hopefully extend to a forth teacher and also improve the school grounds and building. The cost for the salary of a teacher for a year is about Nrs: 30,000 (I.e Euro: 300 approx. Gokyo Treks is dedicated to this project, we want to be able to support the school, and eventually other schools like this for the future of the children of our country. We strongly believe that the children of today are our leaders of tomorrow. By booking a charity tour with us, you are generating funds for the school. We have made this special program to take in the highlights of Nepal over two day program and finish with a visit to Nuwakot District so you can see for yourself how the money is being spent. From this trip we donate 15 % of the profit to the school.
This trip is our personal suggested tour program, if you would like to support our project but do not like this itinerary or would like to include some other activities, then we can make an alternative for you, just contact us with your desires, we will make the program and price for you. The more people you bring the cheaper the tour will be.
