In 2023, I have had the chance to summit two mighty peaks: Aconcagua, the towering summit of the Western Hemisphere (6,961m), and Ama Dablam in Nepal (6,812m). To commemorate this milestone, my aim is to raise USD 20,000 for education initiatives in Nepal, with Teach For Nepal being a key project I've chosen to support. We all carry memories of at least one teacher who left an indelible mark on us, reshaping our worldview. Teach For Nepal excels in creating such transformative experiences.
Nepal faces a challenge with under-resourced public schools, struggling to attract and retain teachers. Annually, a staggering 80% of students in these schools do not complete secondary education. The Teach For Nepal Fellowship provides a full-time, two-year paid opportunity for Nepalese graduates. During this period, Fellows engage in teaching roles within rural village public schools, fostering academic achievement and profound changes among their students. Simultaneously, they hone their leadership skills through teaching experiences, intensive development training, and ongoing support. This program has resulted in an impressive 99% graduation rate in public schools where Fellows are involved. Additionally, 40% of Fellows continue to contribute to the education sector through their careers, extending their impact to a broader spectrum.
Since its inception in 2013, TFN has trained over 450 Fellows, positively impacting over 10,000 students annually.
A donation of USD 5,000 sustains a Fellow throughout the entire two-year program. The forthcoming program cycle commences in January 2024.
