HCC Nepal Shristi with FriendsThis blog post was written by HCC student Shristi GC. 

Hello Everyone! How are you all doing? I am fine here and hope everything is good there. The temperature here is not that cold now and starting to get hot. I am regularly attending my college. I am giving my unit test, and tomorrow is the last test. This is just a test to review what our performance is and how well we are studying.

Yesterday, I went to Baudhanath and Pashupatinath, a religious temple of Nepal, with one of the Canadian volunteers, and her name is Katie. She is a sweet person, and it is good knowing her. I gave a tour of our historical knowledge about this temple. She wanted to visit this temple before going to Dang,HCC Nepal Shristi with Friend on Steps and Dinesh uncle gave me a chance to take her there. It is always a fun time when the new volunteers come here, and we get to listen to their experiences. I am so glad that we have the opportunity to meet new people and get the exposure.

In my leisure time, I am knitting a muffler and helping in Khushi Ghar. I am also preparing for the upcoming pre-board exam which will probably be after a month.

Thank you for helping and supporting us. Lots of Love from Nepal!HCC Nepal Shristi Knitting

Field Trip Experience by Arun, HCC university student

From December 9th to 11th, I volunteered on a trip to Dhading and Nuwakot with Dinesh Uncle, Laxmi Didi, Nishan Dai, and D.P. Uncle. Our goal was to distribute winter supplies like clothes, books, and calculators to students in these areas. The trip was a rewarding and humbling experience as we connected with the children and saw the impact of HCC’s work.

We left early on December 9th, starting at 6:30 a.m. Our first stop was to meet eight students. We spent time chatting with them about their families, studies, and future goals, and distributed chocolates to them. Then, we went to Dhading Besi and visited another school, where we spent three hours meeting students, handing out supplies, and learning about their lives. A 13-year-old girl, Gita, stood out to me with her maturity and confidence.

Next, we traveled to Darkha, where we enjoyed the beautiful scenery despite the rough roads. We stayed overnight at a local hotel and the next morning met with the community, including the mayor and teachers. We gave supplies to 15 students and had meaningful conversations with locals.

In the afternoon, we visited Bindu Keshar School in Nuwakot, where we played volleyball with eight students and shared snacks. Finally, we reached Uttar Gaya, where we updated records for six students and saw their dedication to learning. We ended the trip by staying at a hotel in Nuwakot before heading back to Kathmandu the next day.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our team, sponsors, and well-wishers for their invaluable support in ensuring the education and well-being of  students in the RISE program. The field visit was a success, providing much-needed support and monitoring to students in the RISE program. Through collective efforts, we continue to create meaningful impacts on the lives of children and their families in Nepal.
