<div>Dear All,

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>As we all know, education is the foundation for the development of human civilization. Every achievement and transformation in the world stems from education. It plays a vital role in shaping awareness, progress, and innovation within human society. In the modern education system, schools are the primary institutions for learning — and both skilled manpower and adequate physical infrastructure are essential for their effective operation.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Unfortunately, due to limited resources and a shortage of skilled teachers, many community schools in Nepal have struggled to provide quality education. A large number of these schools lack sufficient physical infrastructure, particularly computer labs. As a result, students are deprived of practical computer education in this digital age. Computer courses in such schools are often limited to theory, leaving students without the hands-on experience they need to thrive in today’s technological world. Establishing computer labs is therefore a long-term solution that will empower these students to enhance their practical knowledge and compete with their peers globally.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Recognizing this need, the Association of Nepalese in Midwest America (ANMA) — a nonprofit organization registered under 501(c)(3) — is proudly sponsoring Dr. Om Dahal, ANMA Senior Vice President, in his initiative to establish three computer labs in three public schools across Nepal:

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Sanskrit Mabi Riddi, Gulmi District

</div>

<div>Mahakali Secondary School, Palpa District

</div>

<div>Salyankot Secondary School, Dhading District

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Dr. Dahal will be running the 2025 7 Bridges Marathon in Chattanooga, TN, on October 19th as part of this fundraising campaign. The selected schools serve underprivileged communities, and this project aims to bridge the digital gap by providing access to technology and modern learning tools.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Since 2016, Dr. Dahal has participated in one marathon each year, leading to the establishment of 27 computer labs, one girls’ friendly toilet, and one ambulance project in different parts of Nepal.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The estimated cost for this year’s project is NPR 1,500,000 (approximately USD 12,000), which will cover 10 computers, one printer, and one projector for each lab. The schools themselves will arrange the required furniture and rooms.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>As Terry Hogan beautifully said, “Little drops of water, little grains of sand, make the mighty ocean.” Even small contributions can create a lasting impact. Your support — no matter the amount — will play a crucial role in making this initiative successful and helping hundreds of students access quality computer education.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>We deeply appreciate your generosity and continued support.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Warm regards,

</div>

<div>ANMA Family
