With our Day Care Centre in Birgunj running very well now, we are able to assist more and more street children every day. Now, we have finally signed an MOU with the government to run a child helpline in Birgunj. The helpline will cover other districts in Province 2 as well so we should be able to help even more children living on the streets.
About a week ago, a terrible storm caused many deaths and injuries in southern Nepal, and in some villages around 80% of houses got destroyed. Luckily our children are safe and we experienced just some small damage to the building. We were participating in the rescue operations in the district and trying to help any children needing emergency assistance. So our day care centre became very useful during that time.
On the 12th April we will be celebrating the International Day for Street Children. Our team are organising an art competition for the street children we are assisting and also for other children's homes in the area. In the next report we will post the best art produced by the children. We can't wait!
Thank you so much for all your support. Thanks to that we are able to help more and more street children every day.
