Why raise money for one charity and not another? Why HVP? Why Nepal?
The reason is that this is the opportunity that has crossed our path, that has connected us.
I met David, a 3rd year chemistry student at Cambridge who told me about his experience as a teacher at HVP-Dang last summer and his admiration for what the schools have achieved and Chintamani Yogi's, the founding principal, passion in helping Nepal build its next generations.
I met Nichel, a master's student in International Relations from Nepal who told me about the beauty and need of this country.
I wrote to Chintamani Yogi to learn more about his vision and was inspired to join his school for 6 weeks this summer in Dang.
And I have met you. By reading this you have already joined me to Nepal, in making a small difference. Thank you.
HVP is an Education Trust run on a non-profit basis that prides itself in providing a holistic education for children in Nepal, where the ideals of peace, tolerance and international outreach are just as important as academic excellence.
