School bus appeal
HVP Central and HVP Dang schools have both been in urgent need of upgraded school buses in order to serve the needs of their school communities and ensure safe, reliable transport to and from school. Thanks to HVPN-UK support HVP Central has been able to put down an initial payment for a suitable Electric Vehicle and have taken receipt of the van (pictured) to the delight and relief of teachers, students and parents alike, However we are urgently in need of donations to cover the remaining cost of HVP Central's van, and for the purchase of a similar van in Dang.
Other support needs
All three HVP schools are aiming to upgrade their classrooms with interactive whiteboards. 'Smart' classrooms are now an expectation for schools in Nepal and are seen as a sign of quality, enabling dynamic and modern lessons and opportunities to build skills using online tools, multimedia resources and high quality educational software. Donations or company sponsorship that enables one or more classrooms in any of the schools to be upgraded can be recognised with a letter of thanks and acknowledgement and a photo of the newly equipped classroom.
Every year HVPN-UK allocates thousands of pounds to HVP projects in Nepal, enabling work that reaches some of the most marginalised people in Nepali society, giving them opportunities that will enable them to transform their lives
Our supporters believe vision of a strong future for Nepal, built on the principles of Human Values Philosophy such as equality, social responsibility and love of peace

Sign up as a monthly donor to the HVP Scholarship Fund to boost the reach and impact of HVP's work in Nepal.
At the HVP schools, fees are calculated based on a needs-assessment of each family. We subsidise the fees from the HVPN-UK scholarship fund to ensure that no child is denied the opportunity for an education due to financial hardship.
Some students receive scholarship support to cover all or part of their school fees, while some (especially those resident in the Children's Peace Home) have all costs covered to enable them to attend school - including accommodation, food, uniform and books.
Regular giving is the most valuable form of support for our work. £30 per month can cover full scholarship support for one student, however due to the flexible nature of our scholarship support structure any regular donation into our scholarship fund increases the essential work HVP does to provide educational opportunities to those who would otherwise miss out. Please support with whatever you can afford, and consider increasing your monthly contribution when you can afford to give more.
You will receive a printable letter of appreciation to acknowledge your suport as a patron of the HVP schools, and an annual update on the Scholarship scheme.
