Introduction:
This programme is designed to help rural students of Eastern regions of Nepal, particularly at Bhojpur. This district is yet out of first basic needs of human beings like transport, electricity and communication. Mainly early child marriage, gender discrimination, illiteracy and rule through traditional belief are the prevailing aspects even today. Similarly, the most miserable situation is of girls that are of schooling age. They are forced/persuaded to early marriage. They are never encouraged to have complete high school education or higher studies of university mainly Chyangre and Paikala of Bhojpur. Mainly parents don’t want to see their grown up daughters going to school or college. The concept of sending their daughters to city areas of higher education is rare and colleges are there in their home village. Mostly grown up girls have common faith- marriage and finally a family life. Besides, they are never encouraged by government plan and polices, even international volunteers or organization don’t dare to approach such places, and they are at town areas like Kathmandu in large. This programme in the form of scholarship or sponsorship targets to level up this miserable parts of girls, encouraging them from high school education (grades 6, 7, 8, 9,10) to higher education so that it will bring effective result in the future of students, and social awareness in the mind of poor, innocent and uneducated parents.
