Appeal
Pokhara
is not only known as city of beauty but also the capital city for sports, city
of movies & entertainment and is also known as the educational center of
Western Development Region. Pokhara is not only reknown for its art, culture
and literature but is also a focal point for people from different ethnic
groups and thus is a city with lots of probability for tourism, agriculture,
industry and business. In order to make the existence of Pokhara, which is
enriched with lots of means and resources, in its real form, it is inevitable
for all the inhabitants of Pokhara to have social feelings toward welfare in
its purest form.
Around
Bhimsenchowk – Chipledhunga, Prithivichowk – Buspark, Baglung Buspark,
Ganeshmanchowk and other nearby areas of beautiful Pokhara, the street children
are bound to continue their journey to future that is destined nowhere. For the
protection, rehabilitation and socialization of these children, which is the
responsibility of every sensible citizen, we have been conducting “Snacks
Campaign” being based on the slogan “Street Children free, Beautiful Pokhara”
thus making courageous attempts to solve this social problem thus protecting
and rehabilitating the street children.
Established
on 14th Poush, 2057 B.S. on the active participation of children
from Miyapatan, the club has been conducting various programs for street
children in an organized way from 2065 B.S. onwards. For the growth and
development of children, the club has been conducting creative programs,
forming child clubs, conducting sanitation programs at schools and “toles” (areas) and distributing clothes
and food to street children time and again. Not only this, the club has mainly carried
out research to find out the number of street children, reasons for their
arrival at street and identification of their problems and needs accompanied by
the conduction of various programs for their protection. We are moving forward
with confidence that 74 children who are spending their lives at streets of
Pokhara could be rehabilitated.
“Snack
Campaign” simply refers to the donation of amount that you spent for snacks for
a day to help street children. The amount collected from donation will be used
to bring smile on the faces of those children who are spending their lives with
future destined nowhere. We are willing to initiate a campaign on reducing the
increasing number of children at streets by intervening on the causes thus
protecting the children and rehabilitating those who are at streets. Through
Snacks Campaign, we will fulfill the basic needs of street children (food,
clothes, shelter, education, health) and provide platform for sports, skills and
knowledge (education) according to their interest, necessity and ability
accompanied by their rehabilitation. We would like to heartily appeal all the
sensitized and responsible citizens, organization and government agencies for
their participation in snacks campaign.
In
order to make the campaign effective, we are walking along with various
organizations. In coordination with Gandaki Media Society, we have been
conducting “Youth Concern” program whereas snacks campaign is going to be
accomplished in coordination with legalized student union of Nepal – All Nepal
Free Student Union (ANFSU). In order to make the campaign, a committee has been
formed with 13 members on the coordination of Jainab Khatu, president of Muskan
Club, with Dilip Neupane – Member of Central Secretariat of ANFSU and secretary
of ANFSU at Prithvi Narayan Campus Pokhara, as a spokesperson of the committee.
Apart from this, Advisory committee with 5 members has been formed in order to
make the campaign successful.
We
would like to heartily appeal all the respected brothers, sisters and
organizaitons of Pokhara to donate equivalent to their expenses of snacks for a
day thus showing their concern and feeling that the street children, who are
bound to spend their days and nights at streets, are our own family members.
