School Improvements for rural school in Nepal - Fencing around a rural school to keep local cattle out.

Ref:  37.00

Where is this project needed?

 
Tanahun, Nepal
 
Who needs help with this?
 
Shree Nirjala Lowere Secondary School
 
How will my support help?
 
This school is currently on an open piece of land and is regularly disturbed by outsiders as well as cattle during school time. Local cattle come in to the school area which is making the environment dirty and unsanitary. The children then have no suitable place to play out doors. Erecting a fence would significantly improve the schooling environment for the children attending this school. The villagers have agreed that this is a vital project but they are a poor community and they are unable to raise the funds needed. They are able to contribute the labour required but they need outside support with the cost of the materials. Your support with this project will help greatly improve the learning environment for the children studying at this school.
 
Cost Breakdown
All items are bought in Nepal; to reduce costs and to support the local economy. All costs are therefore given in Nepalese Rupees. JustAid is currently using an exchange rate of £1 = 120 Nepalese Rupees. This rate is slightly lower than the Banks because it allows for fluctuation in the rates
 
Materials for fence needed; cement, cement poles, nails,
and plantation of trees along the fencing = 35,000 NRS
Project Implementation costs = 3200 NRS
Local bank charges to receive funds = 350 NRS
Total Cost of Project = 38,550 Nepalese Rupees

"Education is a fundamental human right. It provides children, youth and adults with the power to reflect, make choices and enjoy a better life. It breaks the cycle of poverty and is a key ingredient in economic and social development." (www.unesco.org)
