Lalitpur, Nepal Who needs help with this? shree Sisnery secondary school, Lamatar How will my support help? This secondary school in Nepal is based in a very poor area. Although it is relatively close to the capital city of Kathmandu, this school has very basic facilities and must run on an extremely tight budget. As a result, the school lacks some of the most basic equipment. There is a very basic library room but the school is unable to afford the needed reference books for the teachers to effectively teach the curriculum. The school also needs support to buy additional textbooks so that there are enough for all of the students. Your support with this project will greatly improve the level of teaching provided for the students, which is essential for this already disadvantaged group of students.
