Linda's fundraiser for Altevette Project Teachers' Salary

I'm raising money for Altevette Project
Donations cannot currently be made to this page
Altevette Project funds the development and support of a school project for disadvantaged girls in the high altitude and remote region of Upper Mustang in Nepal near the border with Tibet. Girls in this area are vulnerable to extreme poverty and exploitation and have little opportunity for education due to the lack of schools at high altitude in such remote and harsh regions. The educational system of Upper Mustang has as its foundation the Buddhist doctrine and, with rare exceptions, there are no other schools outside of the monasteries and religious communities. Our students receive a full government secular school curriculum, 3 languages, Tibetan, Nepali and English as well as learning Buddhist ritual activities and Buddhist instruments such as gongs, cymbals, trumpet etc The school opened in 2012, with 15 girls and 4 teachers and we've grown at an almost unbelievable rate to where we are today - over 50 girls aged 5 to 21 in school, 9 teachers and 6 support staff, all of whom are fully resident and live full time at the school and 8 part time teachers, taking subject specific higher education classes. The school is currently licenced with the National Education Ministry to offer education for children from lower kindergarten to Grade 12.

Story

Thank you for visiting the Altevette Project's JustGiving page.

Our charity, registered in the UK, is dedicated to supporting a school for disadvantaged girls in the remote region of Upper Mustang in Nepal near the border with Tibet.

Our goal is to fund the salary of a science teacher for the school year 2025.

With £2,900, we can provide crucial education in Biology, Chemistry or Physics to girls in years 11 and 12 at the school.

Your donation through JustGiving is secure and efficient, ensuring that your contribution directly impacts these young lives. You can elect not to pay commission charges before confirming your donation. Your generosity will make a lasting difference by empowering these girls through education. We don't take any expenses from donated monies apart from international bank charges, which even as a charity, we can't avoid. So please be assured your donation will get to the school.
