Upcoming Projects
Community Sports Stadium
In the heart of Kathmandu, near Thamel, an open, barren field
is used daily by children and youth from the surrounding community for
friendly matches of cricket and soccer, flying kites, and having fun.
It is an open lot in the heart of a dense, hectic city - a rare resource
that should be put to better use.
With the assistance of the surrounding Nepali community, local
businesses, and two local schools, we'd like to build a community sports
stadium, complete with stalls to rent for small businesses to generate
income for sustainability and support.
The representatives of both local schools have also agreed to provide
in-kind community service from their student bodies to help maintain,
and positively make us of, the stadium grounds.
Ironically enough, this lot also stands directly across the street from
UNICEF's main headquarters, with their bronzed gates and high, bricked
walls. Rather than paying for tax-free, high-end salaries, for cars, free
housing, staff, or extended pricey meetings and "retreats", we intend
to make an immediate, discernible, appreciated change in the lives of
these youth.
With your help, we can do just that.
Sponsor A Teacher
The long-term, positive impact a single teacher can have on a community is immeasurable.
We'd like to assist those committed teachers who are truly making the efforts for lasting,
meaningful change in their students and communities - the catalysts for positive change.
By sponsoring teachers in a direct, person-to-person manner, we can effect immediate and
discernable change. In effect, we will be providing educational scholarships to an
entire classroom of students.
Immediate. Direct. Effective.
Nepal Direct Effects.
