**** Dear Friend, Imagine a school made of adobe (mud brick) and bamboos...that takes young people to the path of truth and non-violence...teaches them dignity of labor...say that it is OK to work with soil and become a farmer, that teaches them that one always has enough to give away to someone more needier...that takes them back to the nature...that reminds them they are special and valued. A school that says that good education doesn't have to be expensive... a school that symbolizes community cooperation...that symbolizes sacrifice one generation makes for another. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jyotidaya School in Chapagaun is a not-for-profit school run by the community. It provides quality education of a private school at the cost of government school. Those who can’t pay study for free. It was started by young people when they were in 18/19 years old. All of them have now completed their Masters degree but they have sacrificed their potentially high paid career to run this model school in their community. Sarvodaya with your support can help this school grow and meet its mission and make this a model that other communities can replicate across Nepal.
