Girls like Baano* are marginalised, isolated, and locked out of education.
Help stop this injustice. With your help, things CAN change.
Girls from poor communities in Nepal face significant challenges and risks - poverty, discrimination and isolation. Many, like Baano, have learning needs that teachers are not equipped to support, making education even harder to access. Denied a choice, a voice and an education. It is not right, or fair.
VSO is empowering girls back into education. They receive tailored and varied support from VSO expert volunteers - as do their families and teachers.
There are thousands of girls like Baano who we urgently need to reach. Will you give the gift of education and a brighter future to a girl like Baano?
Girls have the right to learn, but nearly 1 in 3 girls around the world have never set foot in a classroom**.
Help a vulnerable girl who is missing out on an education.
Every day, Baano watched children from her village go to school while she stayed home. She wanted to join them, but she couldn’t. She didn’t know the language, and without it, she was shut out. Many girls who have additional learning needs, like Baano, have never even been to school. They are completely shut out due to their additional needs and the financial struggles of their families to support them. They are deeply isolated and lonely.
Don't you believe that every girl deserves an education?
Thanks to VSO supporters, Baano was given the opportunity to catch up. She received bridge classes to learn the national language, school supplies, and the guidance of a VSO Big Sister mentor. Now, she is in school learning and building a better future.
Give an urgent gift to help more girls like Baano get the life-changing support and education they need for a brighter future.
