Education is the key to a bright future. In Nepal, not everyone can afford to study. Therefore JYY, together with Aurora Borealis, supports young Nepalese in their higher education studies.

Academic Sponsorship Program supports bright young people, who want to continue their studies in a college or vocational school after elementary studies. The support includes the tuition fees and other costs such as the school uniform and materials and transportation. Students’ situation is being monitored regularly and it is annually decided whether there’s a need to continue the support. A local association Loo Niva Child Concern Group is responsible for the practical execution of the Academic Sponsorship Programme.

You can support our work in many ways. Development cooperation lunch tickets, supporting our project, can be purchased at Ilokivi. You can also donate to the project when paying the student union’s member fee, or directly here. We are also happy to receive bottle deposit money from subject organizations. If you want to have our charity box at your event, you can pick it up at JYY Central Office. Feel free to join events supporting the project, organized by the Subcommittee for Development Cooperation. You are also welcome to join all other subcommittee activities as well!
