We Want to Show What Women Can Do When We Support One Another.
A recent study found that 48.05% of Nepalese women older than 15 did not have any form of education.
We Want to Change That
This spring, we’ll demonstrate that SheClimbs by embarking on an international all-women’s climb of Makalu, situated in the Barun Valley, eastern part of Nepal.
Women and girls can change entire societies when given the opportunity to first shape their own lives. Education is the foundation that sets the course. In Nepal, women are the core of society. They organize household activities and are a child’s first teacher; they must be knowledgeable, patient and confident. Yet only 44.5% of women in Nepal are literate (Nepal Living Standards Survey 2010-2011 (NLSS- III). We are seeking to make one Nepalese woman’s dream a reality each year. Annually, we will seek to award one applicant funds toward an educational objective–a grant to achieve her “Anything is Possible” goal or dream. As a climbing team we will raise awareness, funds and provide expertise for the candidate to bring her dream to life. 100% of the funds raised will be awarded to the recipient.
1,000 USD will provide one year of college education for one woman.
