Dhading. Dilmaya Memorial Foundation (DMF) has distributed a set of computers to Shree Barah Kalika Higher Secondary School in Jwalamukhi village municipality of Dhading.
Khusi Limbu, Chairman of the foundation, said the aim was to provide modern education to children in the rural area so they have the opportunity “to learn and catch up the runaway technological world”.
The foundation was recently approached by Barah Kalika Higher Secondary School citing lack of physical infrastructure and resources to establish an e-library. The foundation collected Rs. 36,800 from its members and Rs 77,452 from its well-wishers.
The DMF handed seven computers worth the total amount of Rs.1,14,252 over to the school on Friday, the 5th of February.
Most of the students of Barah Kalika High School are from minority and marginalized communities. A total of 431 students studying in the school will benefit from this work thanks to 20 donors of the Dilmaya Memorial Foundation for this project.
In the handover programme held at the schoolyard, Shiva Aryal, Headteacher of the school, thanked Dilmaya Memorial Foundation for this gracious support. “We want to develop Baraha Kalika as a model school, and for that, we look forward to receiving more supports from organisations like Dilmaya Foundation”, said Mr Aryal.
Likewise, Jwalamukhi Village Municipality Chairman Binod Timalsena also thanked Dilmaya Foundation for its support and said that the village municipality is ready to work in cooperation with the foundation in the coming days.
