In Nepal, the civil war and economic malaise have lead to increasing numbers of children being left to their fates. They usually end up on the streets. No healthcare, no schooling. Robbed of their future, they have to fight to survive. The Shree Nepal Matri Griha Primary School programme supports these children. The organisation ensures that children can attend school, and provides social support for their families. They learn to actively contribute to improving their situation.

In Calcutta, over 100,000 children don’t have roofs over their heads. Particularly the girls are at high risk of abuse and violence on a daily basis. The project for the integration of street children provides shelter and education within a private school, side by side with children from the highest social circles. They follow classes together, and learn with and from each other. A new society is formed, cutting through all castes.

This project is aimed at helping children from poor villages located in very remote mountainous areas in northwest Thailand. Many of these children cannot complete primary school because of the long travel distances to school and the lack of good living accommodations at the schools.
The Samsara Foundation is helping to solve this problem by providing several schools in this mountainous northwest region with living accommodations and other facilities so that children can live at their school during school periods and thus complete their primary education.
One of the most important and essential contribution to a better life for the children, is access to clean drinking water. It prevents diseases, but the availability of clean water will also attract more and better-qualified teachers to the mountain schools. Many schools in this specific area do not have access to clean drinking water. This project is aimed specially at the installation of twenty water purification machines at twenty schools. Ten of the twenty schools do not have access to water at the end of the dry season. These schools also need a cement water collecting tank to store the rainwater during the rainy season to use in the dry season.
