The team leave Okhaldunga after a long journey the day before and amazing reception. Here we see Gary Wornell - normally behind the video camera - talking with Shiba Raj Gautam whose school with 60 enrolled pupils in this small mountain village was completely destroyed.
Pahal Nepal (Moving Mountain Nepal) is a registered NGO in Nepal and started as a post earthquake initiative in May 2015 as Moving Mountain School Bag. The aim of Pahal Nepal is to initiate projects which support school children from remote areas in their studies and provide opportunities for the urban poor women in Kathmandu by creating projects which utilise their skills and bring sustainable financial stability to their lives.
Our volunteers from Unatti Group Home for Girls help with packing the bags from your donations before we head out to the schools.
The Bags
Many school bags in Nepal come from cheap imports which have an adverse effect on the economy. Here at Moving Mountain Nepal we have custom made school bags, waterproof and sturdy that will last for years. They are locally made in Jorpati, Kathmandu providing employment for small businesses.
The Notebooks
Our notebooks are specially made by a small firm in Boudha, Kathmandu, using good quality paper and thick covers printed with our logo and information about the importance of education.
