Our total student population is now at about 100 students.
We are now asking our supporters to help us in supporting our students and staff.

Items like cups, cutlery, and plates will be purchased.
Much thanks to Educate a Child and our other donors for thinking of our school in Nepal

Nothing is more important for a quality education than a full stomach.
It doesn't matter if you have the best teachers or attend the best school with the best resources. If you don't have a full stomach, then you can't concentrate enough to retain the information. Sometimes you can't even stay awake.
This is why we have a meal everyday at all our schools.
Thanks to Mary for churning out these meals day after day.
Namaste Everyone!
This beautiful journey going to end very soon, with this little beautiful kids. After being members as the preschool students of School for Andy Nepal for one-and-a-half years they're moving to the regular schools for their further education next month.

Some repairs needed to be done at our school in Uganda. We were going to hire some contractors to do some of the work, but the students insisted on helping out.
It fills all of us here at Meaningful Volunteer with so much gratitude when we see the students taking such pride in their school.
Well done everyone!
After many hours of hard work, we are proud to present our brand new site!
We striped down a lot of the core content to concentrate on what our core mission is now, which is to sustainably support our schools in Uganda and Nepal.
So take a look around and let us know what you think!
And a big thank you to everyone who was supported us over the years!
