With the negotiation of the 2006 ceasefire bringing and end to Nepal’s ten year civil war, Edge-ucate.org has extended operations to include previously inaccessible communities. Dading village is a great example of one such community…

Nestled high up in the hills two hours from Kathmandu, the only way to reach Dading is by an additional two hour hike through pristine countryside. Here school conditions are rustic and children are obliged to walk two hours in any one direction to attend classes.

Partnering with a local Headmaster and Rotary International, Edge-ucate.org has committed to building an addition to Dading kindergarten. This new addition will double the number of students currently attending this small school, while providing much needed supplies, furniture, and nourishment.
