"Motivation I get from the happy faces" - Prerna Bhatta.

Prerna Bhatta is one of the co-founders of Kehi Garoun. In 2006, her sister-in-law asked her if she was interested in social work. She instantly said yes and the journey of Kehi Garoun began for her. In the process of registering KG, Prerna along with her friends, went to District Administration Office, Kathmandu and consulted many other organizations to learn about the functioning of an organization. After the completion of registration process, they started fund raising. With the raised fund, they started mid-day meal program for children of Pragati Siksha Sadan, Lalitpur.

During the initial days of mid-day meal program, Prerna used to go to the school and provide mid-day meals. Seeing the happy faces of the young children, she got enormous satisfaction. That satisfaction always keeps her motivated to be the change. She still helps KG with fund raising, mobilizing khuttruke and submits her membership fees on a regular basis.

Prerna is an active and educated person who chose to be a housewife. She found many ways to contribute to the wider community. She feels everyone – housewives, professionals, retired professionals, students can find ways to be the change with KG.

"KG’s work is a double bonus"-Prem Kumar Subba.

Prem Kumar Subba is a semi-retired development specialist with more than 30 years experience in the children’s welfare and education sectors.

The spirited 64-year-old from Kathmandu has been funding the KG gift-pool for the last two years and wholeheartedly supports KG’s mission to bring about change through self-responsibility. Mr Subba, whose interests lie in literature, film, travel and interacting with the youth, is also very taken with the way KG motivates young people to work as staff or volunteers and gain valuable experience in social work. He appreciates the fact that this is a double bonus: youngsters, who find it difficult to get a job, are gainfully employed; and the exposure KG gives them to the management and logistics of a non-profit organisation means that the sector, with a severe skills shortage, is likely to gain able workers in the future.

Sarala Panta

"I married the teaching profession" - Sarala Panta, Change-Maker of the Year 2012

A teacher of Kanya Mandir School, she formed a team that incubated Education Support Network of government school teachers. She has been a leader in this network ever since.

Kanya Mandir School is a government school exclusively for girls in Neukha near Kshetrapati, Kathmandu. Among its teachers, Sarala Pant stands out for her commitment to help students in need. There are many other examples of her benevolence; she has bought food and clothing for her students with money from her own pocket on numerous occasions. Her philosophies are: “it’s the duty of each human being to have kindness and humility” and that “it pays to respect and be kind to others”.

Born in Ragnathpur (Dhanusha), she lives with her parents and siblings in Dhobichaur (Kathmandu). She has been a teacher for 20 years – married to her profession! She spent her first 10 years teaching at a private school and the next 10 years teaching at this government school, which she finds even more rewarding.

Most of her students belong to lower class families, who earn their livings on the basis of daily wages. Some of her students are even domestic child workers. Sarala recalls a particular incident when a student fainted from lack of food while she was teaching. The child’s parents had nothing to eat because they had not earned anything the day before. Sarala also routinely sees her students not doing their homework due to lack of stationery and books, and shivering due to cold in the winter. Yet, her students are hungry to learn and enthusiastic to attend school.

It pains her to see little pairs of eyes searching for food, to see tiny pairs of hands shivering with cold, to see homework undone due to lack of books and stationery. And so Sarala made a commitment to affect change.

Sarala convinced the Kanya Mandir Alumni Association for mid-day meal sponsorship for 18 students who needed them
Sarala initiated a disucssion with Kehi Garoun on stationery distribution, which grew to be the Stationery Project that helps over 1000 students
Sarala is active in designing the KG Gifts program

Rukmini Humagain

I am living my dream-Rukmini Humagain, is a teacher at Adarsha School who thinks that teaching profession means more than source of income. Teaching has become an important part in her life.

Her school is in Naxal, Kathmandu, but she lives in Kaushaltar, Bhaktapur, about 1 hour bus journey. In addition to her teaching job and her dedication to it, she is also a mother of 2 children, is currently doing M.Phil from Tribhuvan University and teaching at a campus in the morning hours. Yet, she regularly nominates her students for KG's gifts and awards program, attends various meetings to help her students and makes sure that her students are receiving stationary and gifts through KG. She is active and hardworking teacher who is concerned about her students and is eager to help them.

She always dreamt of providing service to her society and country and teaching has made it easier to live her dream. She has been teaching for over 15 years in the school.

Out of the 200 students studying in the school, about 75 percent are domestic child workers and 25 percent from a very low economic background. 35 years old teacher Rukmini is dedicated to continue her service and profession for more years to come to build a better society by educating the underprivileged children. She finds her work very satisfying that gives her inner peace and happiness because she has been able to provide education to the children who cannot afford it.

Keshari Ghale Gurung

A mother’s power in shaping the fate of her children-Keshari Ghale Gurung, is 57 years old but her drive to affect change remains youthful.

Keshari Ghale Gurung is a great example of compassion. Before her retirement, she taught at the Balbikash School for more than 30 years. Then, with her heart still set on educating underprivileged children, she started EDUC – Nepal (Education and Development for the Underprivileged Children of Nepal). Currently, EDUC provides education, stationary, text books, meals and uniforms for 45 underprivileged children.

Keshari is 57 years old but her drive to affect change remains youthful. While she was teaching at the Balbikash School, she would regularly perform the janitorial duties (cleaning class rooms, corridors and the kitchen) whenever the helper was on leave and was frequently mistaken for her. She was never fazed by this though, as she believes in no hierarchy with regards to work.

As a child growing up in Singapore, Hong Kong and India, Keshari used to make-believe she was a teacher. When she was 21 years old, after her family returned to Nepal, she finally got her first teaching opportunity at government school called the Balbikash School. Here, many of her students were from poor families and a number of them from the Dalit community. Some even lacked clothes and would attend school barely dressed. The need combined with the despair she saw in these underprivileged students’ eyes touched her and moved her to make a pledge to help them forever.

EDUC is the fruit of this pledge. Keshari wanted to see her students study in better conditions and her students wanted this as well. Yes! They wanted to study in a better school where the infrastructure was intact and they could wear ties, belts and colorful uniforms! The dream of EDUC was their answer and first became reality through the encouragement and financial support of Keshari’s elder brother. Since its opening, EDUC has been finding more and more ways of attracting funds. At present, EDUC has 2 quotas of teachers paid by the government. All the other expenses are covered by Keshari's loved ones (her daughter, nieces and nephews abroad who raise money overseas for EDUC) and by KG’s gift angels and sponsors who contribute towards students' uniforms and stationary.

Though EDUC is now a reality, Keshari has not finished dreaming. She longs to touch the lives of even more children. Increased funding would enable her to enroll more students, but more importantly would also allow her to open EDUC to illiterate mothers. As a mother herself and the founding mother of EDUC, Keshari knows the power a mother has in shaping the fate of her children.

Dipak Chaulagain

I am only a medium to bring change in my students' lives-Dipak Chaulagain, has been teaching for 13 years. In this time, his fascination in and enthusiasm for his chosen profession have not waned. (

'After finishing his secondary education in Kavre, Dipak Chaulagain came to Kathmandu for further studies. Here, at a government campus, he studied education to become a teacher. Students of education are required to gain teaching experience towards their practical exam, which Dipak did at the Krishna Mandir School, a government school in Kshetrapati. Upon completion, the school was eager for him to stay on as a teacher to fill a vacant position. For Dipak, their offer was a dream come true and marked the beginning of his wonderful journey in teaching.

It's been two years since Dipak began his association with Kehi Garoun as a self responsible member. He gladly pays his monthly Rs. 100 membership fee without waiting for KG to collect it because he recognises the effect which this money can have, even on the lives of his own students.

Now aged 35, Dipak has been teaching for 13 years. In this time, his fascination in and enthusiasm for his chosen profession have not waned. There are about 150 students at the Krishna Mandir School; almost all from poor families and about twenty percent of which are domestic child workers. Dipak considers himself privileged to teach all of these students. He understands the impact which education can have on their lives and sees himself humbly as a medium in bringing about their change.

With his monthly income of Rs. 13,000 (USD 146), Dipak looks after his family’s quotidian needs including the education of his 4 children. He, together with some of his colleagues, also provide meals and purchase school uniforms for some students in his school.

"The satisfaction that I get by this is no match to any monetary value" - Sudarshan Pandey

Mr. Sudarshan Pandey is an IT professional based in the US. He has always been into community service. He was looking for ways to give back to the Nepali community as he has seen many people struggling with education and basic needs for living. For various reasons, what he wanted to start didn’t actually transpire hence he was keen in finding someone/something that was at least close to what he believes in. While he was researching, he came to know about KG through his wife, Mahima.

He wanted to do something in the education sector as well as other areas and KG gave him the perfect opportunity to help. During the getting to know phase, he realized that KG and it’s team take their job seriously and sincerely and that they can be fully trusted because they share the ONE and ONLY passion and that is to help others. The satisfaction that he gets by this is no match to any monetary value and for this he is grateful to KG people.

He wishes KG all the best and he honestly feels that this organization is the future to representing the Nepali community. He has supported multiple causes and encouraged his friend V. Singh to support. Mr. Singh is also a KG Angel but wishes to remain anonymous.

Nima Rajbhandari

A face that glows with satisfaction-Nima Rajbhandari, When she enters the classroom with a smile on her face and a hello in the form of 'good morning everybody', the students cheer up. It makes her day.

Teacher Nima Rajbhandari’s face always glows with satisfaction who has been teaching passionately at Shanti Siksha Sadan since the last 12 years. The students she has been teaching are from the families who are from a very low income bracket or are almost at a point of destitution. Their parents are street vendors, rickshaw drivers, maids and daily wage labors. It makes it worse when they cannot even afford a square meal despite working day and night. For them, meal is the first priority and it should be! Children's education comes later. But even in this scenario, they have been sending their children to the school and teacher Nima appreciates it.

She had been helping the students without stationary by providing it herself. After she found KG helping the students with stationary, gifts and awards, she has been relieved.

Teacher Nima studied in a government school herself. After SLC, she had to work to support her family and that obligation introduced her to teaching. In the beginning, it was solely to earn money but slowly teaching gripped her and made her addicted to it. She graduated in economics and teaches the same in the school. When she enters the classroom with a smile on her face and a hello in the form of 'good morning everybody', the students cheer up. It makes her day. 42 years old teacher Nima has been living this treasure of a life every single day.
