For young girls learning remotely in Kathmandu, in-person classes and activities with friends have become a distant memory, but hope has sprung from a familiar face. Hands In Outreach handsinoutreach.org staff and volunteers have been providing a virtual Storytime for nearly a year. Each week for 45 minutes via ZOOM, younger girls are transported into another world full of imagination and possibilities through HIO’s dedicated efforts to build community through education. Gendercide Awareness Project proudly partners with HIO in providing life-transforming access to education to profoundly poor girls and women in inner-city Kathmandu.
