The school of Tipchok

,

The President of the Province of Bolzano takes part in the inauguration of 3 classrooms – The beginning of the construction of Tipchok’s new water main will be soon.

After the earthquake, in the late autumn 2015, three new classrooms in the School “Shree Bhuminata” of Tipchok were about to be built. Works lasted until the end of 2016.

Because there was no space, it was built a provisional flat surface for the children’s play time during the break. The final cost of the labour was 19.255 euro for the three classrooms and 4.700 euro for the flat surface.

The inauguration took place on 5th March 2017 and the scholastic centre and local people took part in this event which was organised by a member of Pro Nepal and our local partner, the Society for each other SEO. It has been highly considered by Dr Arno Kompatscher, who was visiting Nepal and the projects co-financed by his Government. Besides other projects, he inaugurated the School of Tipchock,  which has been appreciated by many people.

A wall sign with engraved financier´s and proposer’s names has been uncovered too.

At the end of the Party, a local engineer showed the President and his delegation the project of Tipchock´s new water main, which was proposed and planned by the SEO and Pro Nepal.

The Autonomous Province of Bolzano partially financed this project in 2016. Works will begin soon.

Visiting the supported children

At the beginning of March 2017, a member of Pro Nepal spent some time in Kathmandu where he visited the Institute Aishworya, the Institute Sahayogi Samai and the Society for each other (SEO). He also met the children supported by some members of Pro Nepal. Before he left Italy, they gave him some gifts and letters for them. The Institute Helping Hands for the deaf has been visited by our contact person of SEO, who has given out letters and gifts to the deaf children who live there.

Pro Nepal is supporting 60 children through these Associations.

Meeting the children was touching; thanks to our support, they can attend classes, a lot of them can live in the institutes where nurses can take care of them. We have been supporting lots of these children for many years, therefore sometimes after finishing school, they´re going back home. Attending classes will be helpful in order to keep on living.

Food and the orphanage Bal Mandir

,

One family in Bolzano donated 270 euro in order to buy food for the Orphanage Bal Mandir. A member of Pro Nepal has bought 12 sacks with 25 kg rice (300 kg), 25 kg yellow lentils, 25 kg green lentils, 25 kg sugar, 2 kg tea and 10 l oil (total amount: 270 euro).

Food has been bought in his presence and hauled to Bal Mandir, where the Director got it, emitted a standard receipt and wrote a thanksgiving letter, which has already been sent to the family who made the donation.

State of the orphanage:

The earthquakes in 2015 have seriously damaged the Institute which risks crumbling, therefore the total amount to rebuild it would be very high. At the moment almost 80 children are living in temporary buildings, whereas others have moved to different Institutes.

Before the earthquake 200-300 children were hosted in the Orphanage Bal Mandir in Kathmandu.
