This boy is eleven and works full time. On Sunday he is found washing his clothes. He was so excited about the books and was also keen to learn written Hindi. At informal classes he was doing just that and was very proud of himself!

Ritang currently has several families of Nepali workers working on a hydro project (that is a whole other story). The children are frequently 'outside' of the formal education system. We had left over resources (and old library toys) that we gave to the kids including Chandani (pictured here). It was heartwarming to walk to Ritang a week later to see the kids using the materials in an 'informal' class.
