Sarvodaya USA to
Support Sarvodaya Movement Inspired School in Nepal
Sarvodaya USA is
supporting Sarvodaya Movement inspired school in Nepal. Jyotidaya
Co-operative School is a unique community based educational program
in Nepal. The school provides education to some of the most
underprivileged students in Chapagaun, a village in outskirt of
Kathmandu valley.
“You know, there is a 12
year old. A few months back her father, mother, two younger brothers and
her grandmother were hacked to death by some people in a land dispute,”
she said. “This girl survived, despite some major injuries,” Mrs.
Ariyaratne added. “After some time in hospital she is now under our
protection. Since she is the only material witness on the case, the
government has provided police officers for her security. Now that she
is recovering well, I wanted to help her attend a good boarding school,
so she can continue her study. I was thinking of the school where my
daughters went.”
