What We Do

Empowering Children for a Brighter Tomorrow

Khandbari Child Development Society (KCDeS) is a modest effort at promoting complementarity between the state and society in furthering the cause of children. Established in 2024 under Nepal’s Societies Registration Act, KCDeS aims to support the development of children especially those from underprivileged backgrounds. Its focus areas include opportunities in education, health, and income generation. People from across the social spectrum can join hands reflecting a true spirit of volunteerism. Membership is open to like-minded individuals and organizations.

KCDeS has an endowment fund enabled through a generous donation from a socially minded family. Its activities are supported through this fund. KCDeS has recently launched a scholarship programme for students from marginalized backgrounds. Currently, this covers five students in Sankhuwasabha schools.

Scholarship Fund Established for Underprivileged Students of Sankhuwasabha

KCDeS established a scholarship fund for Underprivileged Students of Sankhuwasabha. The fund has been carefully designed to support children who demonstrate academic promise but face barriers due to poverty, orphanhood, helplessness, or belonging to marginalized and underrepresented groups. By providing an annual scholarship of NPR 20,000 to five students each year, the fund ensures long-term educational support that extends until the completion of the Secondary Education Examination (SEE).

Through this noble effort, KCDeS has planted the seeds of opportunity and hope, ensuring that deserving students are not denied an education due to circumstances beyond their control. This contribution goes beyond financial assistance—it is a statement of belief in the potential of every child to rise, thrive, and one day give back to their communities. This scholarship fund stands as a testament to the transformative impact that compassionate individuals can have when they choose to invest in future generations. It also sets an inspiring precedent for community-led initiatives that seek to bring lasting change through education.

We are pleased to announce the first group of scholarship recipients:

Sagar Limbu (Grade 1) – Shree Himalaya Secondary School, Khandbari
Binita Parajuli (Grade 5) – Shree Laxmi Basic School, Guwabari
Saraswati B.K. (Grade 5) – Shree Himalaya Basic School, Ramche
Pritimaya Rai (Grade 9) – Shree Saraswati Secondary School, Pakhriwas

The scholarship cheques were formally handed over to the students and their guardians during the Platinum Jubilee celebration of Shree Himalaya Secondary School. The ceremony was presided over by Mr. Arjun Parajuli, Chairperson of the School Management Committee and Chair of the Jubilee Celebration Committee.
