Having support from Ace the Himalaya - a responsible and sustainable tour operator, Sambahv Nepal has launched the Child Education Sponsorship Program with the goal of providing  the school level education to talent, poor, disable, orphans, and conflict-affected children in a tender to empower them a better chance to live a happy, secure and healthy life and future through the means of education.

Education is the process of bringing out the best human qualities that lie within a person. Education helps in identifying, shaping and sharpening the various aptitudes required for the healthy growing up of the child. A major part of the world population is illiterate. Education includes the achievement of basic literacy and numeracy among all students. This also involves laying foundations in science, geography, history and social sciences, which are compulsory. With education, a child develops the basic skills of reading, writing, calculating and basic comprehension of day to day events.

Making this program effective, Sambhav Nepal seeks financial support from various donors and sponsors. This project aims to provide the scholarship of US$ 250 to each child for their schooling education in their own village. The fund received will be directly utilized for the children's school fees, stationeries, outfits and other necessary educational resources. Though the school is located within the village, there is no lodging or accommodation cost which makes this genuinely educational based sponsorship. All your money is going towards their educational needs. In return, you can see and feel the real impact that your support has made as we keep in contact via letters and with regular school reports, photos and updates on each child's progress.

1) Children from poor family who have left their education incomplete
2) They -who are titled as so called lower casts in their society,
3) Talented children who appear above 80% in their school evaluation and seeking for better institutions, and even who are in better status in their class, 
4) The orphans who are cheated by their fortune, neglected by their parents,
5) Conflict-affected children who are physically and mentally disturbed
6) Children who have been displaced forced into child labor and subjected to various atrocities during armed conflict
7) Sympathy even goes for those trekking/climbing guides and porters who are making a very hard journey in the Himalayas in order to shape the future of their children.

We oath,  the contribution you make, directly benefit the above mentioned groups as this project is aimed at empowering all those underprivileged children and community as well. We realize, education is only a powerful tool to combat their misfortunes and shape their future. Since children are the hope of the future, empowered children in the long run will undoubtedly empower the whole community and thus, the entire nation.

Investing in children is investing in the future. You have the will power to make a difference in the lives of these poor souls by supporting this project with your donation.  Annually, sponsors will contribute to the scholarship program for these children. The cost to educate one child for an entire year is USD250, which is our ordinary sponsorship program. 84% of the funds collected will go directly to the children for the educational needs and 16% of the amount goes for administrative purpose and local coordinators. Local guardians will be authorized to utilize this fund for children's education.  We have the local monitors who will ensure that the funds are used for the children’s educational needs and who will also evaluate whether the children are really benefited or not. Moreover they will report the children’s progress in school.  We will periodically send you the children's regular progress report in every six months to assure you that the contribution you made has indeed been useful for the purposes for which it was intended.

With our sponsorship project we are aiming for the long term commitment from you as even in the future sponsorship may require for their High School and University Education. If your sponsored child is extremely talented he/she may even get the golden opportunity to study abroad, which can certainly benefit the world. This is what we believe and plead you for your generosity.

Firstly, we go to the villages and try to find out about the background and family-history of the child. For verification, we check the facts with the other villagers. When we are sure that we have a genuine case, we ask the guardian of the child to fill the application form and submit it with the supporting documents, duly attested by their school, concerned department and District Development Committee. We then make a profile of the children based on the facts then we publish on our website.

What is Special Sponsorship?

Special sponsorship is a bit different from our ordinary program. It facilitates the children with an opportunity to study in city based English private school (i.e. Kathmandu, Pokhara etc). This type of sponsorship is more expensive, the cost is anything from US$ 120 to US$ 150 per child per month includes all meals, accommodation (staying in hostel), school fees, uniform, regular health checkup etc. The children who are extremely extraordinary, smarts can be nominated in this sort of category. The more details regarding the ordinary and special sponsorship would be forwarding you after you select the child for sponsorship.

We accept cash, cheques, bank transfer and credit/debit card payments.
