Today marks 10 years since the devastating earthquake in Nepal, measuring 7.8 on the Richter scale. Thousands lost their lives and communities were shattered. But from the rubble, hope and resilience rose 💛#EarthquakeResistantClassrooms #EducationNepal http://www.citcnepal.org/donate

🎉 We did it!🎉

💖 Thanks to the incredible generosity of our supporters, we reached our Big Give Small Charity Week fundraising target of £10,000.

✨ Thanks to Big Give's match funding awarded by champion The People's Postcode Lottery and with the addition of Gift Aid, this will boosted to over £22,000. 👏

👩‍🏫 Every pound raised will help us support and train female teachers in rural Nepal, giving talented women the opportunity to build rewarding teaching careers and inspiring the next generation of girls through education.

🙏 Whether you donated, shared our campaign, or encouraged others to support us, thank you!

🌏 Together, we're creating brighter futures for women, children and communities in the Solukhumbu region of Nepal.🇳🇵

🌾Happy National Paddy Day 2083! 🇳🇵☘️ A festival that marks the beginning of rice planting season 🌱

Here are some of the Class 1 children, teachers and parents from CITC supported school, Shree Janata, visiting a local paddy field to prepare the land and plant rice seedlings together 🌱🌾

A hands-on way for children to learn about agriculture, community and where their food comes from.

We’re proud to support learning beyond the classroom @CITCNepal 💚 #NationalPaddyDay2083 #ActiveLearning #ParentalEngagement #EducationNepal

🌟 The Big Gives Small Charity Week campaign is now live, running until 5pm on 29th June 🌟

💪 Help us to raise our target of £10,000 which will be DOUBLED to £20,000 to support female teachers in rural Nepal through funding awarded by Big Give champion the Peoples Postcode Lottery!

📚 Situation: In rural Nepal, gender inequality and limited access to education prevent many capable women from pursuing professional teaching careers. Formal qualification routes and testing often disadvantage women, particularly in remote regions such as the Solukhumbu. This results in a shortage of well-trained female teachers and a lack of visible role models for girls in schools. 

🎯 Our Campaign: CITC runs a teacher sponsorship programme that identifies motivated women based on character and potential, not formal qualifications alone. We provide structured training, ongoing mentoring and supported teaching roles within local schools, sponsoring up to 30 female teachers at a time. This enables women to build skills, confidence and professional experience, progress towards government teaching exams and secure long-term, sustainable employment.

Donate here 👉 https://donate.biggive.org/campaign/a05WS00000CEiTiYAL
