Educational Sponsorship
RNV Nepal runs a sponsorship system, where sponsors can pay for a child’s education. Currently, this scheme is running with two schools - Peace Garden School and the Noble School.
This scheme allows children who would otherwise not afford an education, to have access to schooling, uniform and school supplies. From as little as £12 a month, we can change these children’s lives and future prospects.
We have well established links with both schools. Whether you could afford a one off payment, or support a child throughout their entire education, we would love to hear from you!
Karma
Karma was one of our first sponsored children. He was sponsored from age 4 and ever since starting school, he has thrived. So much so, he received an award in the end of year celebrations for the best grades in his year group. Everyone is delighted with his progress, something he could not afford without the generous support of his sponsors.
Arjana
Arjana is a young girl who was sponsored at age 4. She lives in the brick factory with her family, and without the support of a UK family, her life and future would remain within the brick factory. However, she has been studying at the Peace Garden School for the past two years and is now able to read and is making excellent progress with her education.
If you would like to sponsor a child please note the following
- In order to maintain fairness, independence, and ensure assistance reaches those most in need, we require that sponsored children not have any direct connections to the Head Masters or staff of the schools. For many children, this sponsorship is the key to accessing education.
- The Head Masters, Arjun, and Manoj, have graciously agreed to provide regular updates on the progress of the sponsored children, including reports and other relevant information.
- We anticipate sponsors to commit to covering the educational expenses for the entirety of the child's full-time schooling at our institutions.
- With the current exchange rate of 170 Nepalese Rupees to one pound (as of February 25), the annual cost for the youngest children in pre-primary can be as low as £145 (£12 per month). This fee covers expenses such as books, uniforms, and school lunches.
For those who excel academically and continue their education until ages 14 or 15, expenses increase slightly with age. Thus, sponsors may need to commit for around twelve years, with an estimated total cost of just over £3000 over a decade, factoring in inflation and rising educational expenses.
- A 'one off' contribution can be worked out if you would prefer to pay in one sum.
