David’s story
I have requested that donations are made to Kids in Kathmandu, instead of the purchase of presents for my upcoming birthday. I have supported KIKN for a number of years and sponsor a young adult who is currently studying at University in social work.
Kids in Kathmandu Nepal (KIKN) charity was set up in 2011 to provide help and support to orphans and disadvantaged children and young people, mainly living in and around the Kalimati area in Kathmandu. and to help them gain access to education. We do this by:currently sponsoring 23 children from an original 40 through education, including university; and improving basic facilities and infrastructure in 9 schools in the Kathmandu Valley, thus benefitting over 3,500 pupils.It has been shown that a child learns best when they have had a good breakfast. In Nepal, it also helps to improve access to education, giving these impoverished youngsters better life chances. Over the years, KIKN has set up 9 breakfast clubs incrementally in the nine schools we support. We feed almost 1,000 children every school day.
Your donation will go directly towards the running costs of 9 breakfast clubs in nine schools in Kathmandu. It costs approximately 20p to feed a child a day.

All funds raised will be passed to the charity irrespective of whether my target is reached, not reached or exceeded.
