The high school in Chheskam needs additional school buildings
The high school in Chheskam has the same “problem” as the lower school. Too many pupils and no room for all the children. The management of the high school contacted us for this reason. They were
able to acquire additional school buildings. There was still an area with older school buildings that had previously been empty. Now you can send the younger children to these classrooms. But the
buildings are old and urgently need to be renovated.
Funding for this project is around CHF 20,000. We are still looking for a sponsor.
In Nepal there is still a caste system. Each ethnic group is still divided into a caste system. One of the lowest castes is the Kami. They also live in Chheskam. This caste, for example, is
not allowed to enter the house of another caste. This caste is only allowed to practise simple professions. They already have a new water supply. During our visit, they showed us their prayer
stupa. It is their sacred place of prayer and a meeting place for their Kast. The stupa there is very old and is in need of renovation. They also need a railing for the steep stairs to make it
easier for the elderly to reach the place.
Funding for this project is around CHF 3,000. We are still looking for a sponsor.
