Support for education to break the cycle of poverty in developing countries
Support for education to break the cycle of poverty in developing countries
Poverty breeds poverty in the next generation.
People living in poverty struggle every day simply to survive. They have no opportunity to earn a living, and they lack the knowledge they would need to do so. Many people around the world still live in these conditions. Children growing up in such poverty are denied an adequate education, and like their parents, they inherit a life without opportunities to earn a living or the knowledge to change it.
Breaking this cycle of poverty requires two things: lifting the parents’ generation out of poverty, and educating the next generation.
In Nepal, our organization works to break this cycle of poverty. Based on interviews with local communities, we provide the educational support that is truly needed.
Request for Donations of Educational Supplies
Request for Donations of Educational Supplies
Our organization regularly donates educational supplies to schools and other educational facilities in Nepal.
If you have educational supplies you no longer need, we would be grateful for your donation. Items such as stationery, books, and used electronic devices in working condition (such as PCs and tablets) are extremely valuable to local schools.
If you would like to help, please contact us here.

Two of our staff members visited Shree Phutung Secondary School in Nepal as part of their university work and donated educational supplies to the school. Many families in this area are poor, and many cannot afford to pay school fees. These unpaid fees also affect the school’s operations: the small school must educate as many as 1,200 students and is unable to give adequate attention to all of them.
Our staff member Dr. Kandel had been holding SDGs workshops with students at Shree Phutung Secondary School as part of Glocal Collaboration, a program run by the School of Global Harmony at Nagoya University of Foreign Studies, where he works. Meanwhile, Dr. Akiyama was in Nepal conducting sustainability research, including on corporate governance and waste management issues in Nepalese companies, funded by a university research grant. During a break in his research, he visited the school to observe the Glocal Collaboration workshop.
