Gyanu Goes Back to School After Father's Death
Every year, hundreds of students in Nepal are compelled to leave school due to their family conditions. According to statistics, 4.8% of students in Nepal still leave school each year.
Kausila is from a poor family. Her mother suffered from postpartum depression after giving birth to her and has not been able to properly care for her. While she was still a little girl, her father left. Her uncle took responsibility to make sure she was able to go to school, but unfortunately, she lost her uncle in an accident. Because of that, she had to drop her study in the middle of the school year. Her dream of going back to school was just a dream. She had no one to support her.
During the home visitations, our team met with her and listened to her story. When she was told that she would be able to go back to school because of the Captivating Village Program, her eyes filled with grateful tears.
Now, she is back in school, studying in grade 9. Her dream has come true. The smile on her face says it all.
