LET THEM SMILE ! Sponsor a child !

This Smile! Home page is dedicated to the children of Nepal, who cannot go to school just because they are poor. They do not have money for their pencils, exercise books and they even do not have enough to eat at home. So most of the children do not join schools and those who join leave the school in between because they have to 'work' for the food. Shoes and good clothes are a luxury for them.

When I was in the village, studying in class 3, I was one of the outstanding students. I got a scholarship by standing first in my district and came to the capital, Kathmandu, to study in a school, run by British Aid. I stood on my own feet. Here I am today ! Using the world's most sophisticated machine: the computer. I am a senior computer programmer and analyst. I introduced Nepalese fonts in computers, introduced 3D animation, Non-linear film and video editing systems, editing Nepali feature films in computer, etc. What would have happened if I was left in the villages? I would have left the school and would be working in the paddy fields....

Our Mission

We are a group of people who have either been sponsored or have become somebody by getting scholarships from different sources. We know the pain of not getting to go to school, because of the financial problems. We want to make this project a success and help children who really want to study, but have no way out.

The purpose of this page is to get sponsors for the needy children. These children will be able to attend a government school for $100 a year !! That is $8.5 a month !! You will build their future if you wish with a investment of $100 a year.

I will deposit the amount you send directly to the school authority and send you the receipt. The school will also hand-over the reports of your child to me and from me to you ! We will publish :

How do we manage it ?

We are working in our free times. There are 3 part-time administrative people for getting messages, managing funds, corresponding, collecting photographs, collecting data, verifying it and maintaining the records. The only expenses are : salary for these 3 staffs, stationery expenses, telephone, water and electricity bills. We are now running from one of the rooms of my house, but we are trying to get a room. This expense will come up to $250 per month, which we will manage from different sources. One of the source will be the sponsor from whom we will cut $5 as service charge for one year.

What will you get ?

Satisfaction ! That's what we will get, too. We will publish the names of the sponsors and the sposored child in our pages here. We will also put your views (if any) in the periodically journal which is published from our office.
