The Omprakash Foundation

Located in Kathmandu, Nepal, the mission of Pragya English School is to provide high quality private education without high tuition fees in order to provide children with the opportunity to: “Be Educated, Grow Educated.” R.B. Patel is committed to providing a solid education to the disadvantaged children of Nepal’s capital and this shines through in his efforts to ensure each of his students is healthy, has a bed to sleep on night, has proper transportation to and from school, and is properly fed. Mr. Patel’s grand vision is to build a sustainable school, health clinic, and orphanage to reach out to even more children in the Kathmandu area. If you are interested in volunteering with or fundraising for this project, please email Ashley (ashley@omprakash.org). You can also visit their website at http://www.pragyafoundation.org.np/
