PLEASE HELP THE IMPOVERISHED NEPALI POPULATION EMERGE FROM POVERTY THROUGH ACCESS TO KNOWLEDGE!<br> <br>I am writing on behalf of Nepal Journey , a 501c3 Dallas-based organization established in 2015 to help distressed communities worldwide through projects and programs that will help them emerge from poverty and gain economic stability. We envision that our efforts will begin a groundswell of change on a grassroots level that will begin to transform the lives of entire populations.<br>One of our key projects is creating a multi-purpose, disability accessible, public library in Nepal where library resources are meager. Nepal is one of the poorest countries with approximately 25% of the country’s people living below the poverty line. Nepal has experienced over 70 civil wars since 1945; the government is known for being corrupt; five million people are undernourished; child mortality rates are exceptionally high; unemployment rates hover around 2.74 percent; and there is a pervasive prevalence of disease.<br>In addition, the country has been plagued by catastrophic natural disasters. The 7.8 magnitude earthquake in 2005 claimed over 8000 lives in Nepal and caused widespread damage. Even before the earthquake, illiteracy and limited access to information have affect the lives of both urban and rural communities. For those who are disabled, access has been an impossibility.<br>The current lack of government support for libraries in Nepal reflects a lack of recognition of the part that libraries can play in promoting literacy. Studies show that any long-term vision for economic development needs to include literacy as a priority. Some studies suggest that about 43% of Nepalese adults (age 15+) lack basic skills to read and write in the Nepali language. Worldwide, public libraries have been offering free services that promote and develop literacy.<br>There needs to be that type of resource in Nepal, and with your help, it can become a reality!<br>In addition to books and publications, our library will offer many other amenities, including a conference room, computer lab, cafeteria, training areas, literacy programs, a meditation room, a children’s section, and e-book access. We will also have designated areas for the visually and hearing impaired and for those confined to wheelchairs.<br>We are trying to raise $140,000 out of $200,000 to begin the building process. We have already raised $60,000. We have a clear vision of what we hope to accomplish and our project plan is solid. We have reached out to foundations and corporations for their help through charitable contributions, but we know that donations from individuals like you will emerge as a critical pillar of support. Please give whatever you can. Every dollar will help!<br>Please also forward this campaign to your family, friends, colleagues, associates and social media contacts. The more people who learn about out project, the more likely it will succeed!<br>With deep appreciation,<br>Mausami Shrestha<br>President of Nepal Journey <br>214-226-9168
