What a weekend! Our hearts are full after a transformative day at Shree Shringery Secondary School! ❤️
On Saturday, the grounds of Shree Shringery Secondary School in Thakuri Gaun, Lalitpur, were buzzing with energy! In a wonderful collaboration with Nepal Development initiative VFS Global, and in coordination with Youth Initiative and Solid Waste Management Association led a 'Cleaning and Greening' drive that made a real difference.
Thanks to the hard work of over 120 incredible volunteers, we were able to give the school a major refresh! Classrooms are now bright and cheerful, new dustbins are in place to keep the School clean, and over 50 new saplings are taking root, promising a greener future. This amazing day directly benefited more than 350 students and 24 teachers, who now have a more inspiring environment for learning and teaching. The school's principal expressed deep gratitude, saying this support has made a significant difference they couldn't have achieved on their own.
