Clothing distribution to both boys and girls in Gatlang




A mother is preparing lunch (Dhido) for her nine children (7girls and two boys) who are usual here
at Gatlang village.
Our targeted Gatlang VDC (Village development committee) of Rasuwa district, where
large numbers of porters live, is the poorest VDC of Nepal (HDI-2009). Gatlang village
is the remotest village of Nepal which is situated at 2450m from the sea level and situated
in northern Nepal, close to the Tibetan border and at the bottom of the Langtang and
Ganesh Himalayan region which is just a shadow of famous trekking route. Being a
mountainous region, lands are not very fertile. Although 95% people depend on
agriculture, villagers cannot produce enough crops to feed their families. Literacy rate of
Gatlang village is very low, at 2% (Source district development committee Rasuwa
annual journal 2009). The population of Gatlang village is Approx 1950(source: census
survey of 2009 by DDC Rasuwa journal) and one of the poorest Village development
committee of Nepal among 3915 VDCs (source HDI-2009) while the average literacy
rate of the country is 59.7%.




Picture: 3, these children are intently looking and hearing my voice and waiting to get some warm
clothes soon. (I was talking with VDC chair person, Secretary and teachers to select really vulnerable
family to distribute clothes).
In Gatlang village there is only one primary school and the nearest secondary school is
4.5 hours far from their village that is why Many school-aged children have been unable
to attend their schools, and large numbers of children have resorted to all kinds of work
to assist their families, including portering, rag picking, demining, working in garment
factories, as domestic servants, farm work, street trafficking, sexual activities, and more.
They are getting very poor nutrition from their food. Still, the state does not assist these
communities and few institutions do. As porters are the target group, we would like to
assist their communities as we can. So when we recently received a very large, wonderful
donation of children’s clothing, we chose to distribute them in Gatlang VDCs in Rasuwa.
Finally our sincerest thanks again to the chair person of Gatlang VDC, secretary of the
Gatlang VDC, teachers of the primary school who helped fairly to select 353 the most
vulnerable people among 2000 population of Gatlang village, all our donors, partners,
volunteers and friends! And if you would like to make a contribution to assist these
vulnerable groups, we appreciate donations of clothing, food, and stationery. No matter
how you choose to contribute, you can affect great change in this part of world and these
porters’ children’s lives.

THANK YOU!
