My name is Dawa. I was born in a small village called Bridim on 1983. My father’s name is Phurbu Sonam and my mother’s name is Jhyanju. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to enjoy their love and affection. When I was 2 years old they used to quarrel a lot and they divorced. After that me and my mother made our settlement in our grant parent’s home. After 4 months of their divorced my father got married to the next woman. After some years my father came to our grand parent’s home and he bought some clothes for me during the festival. Later my step mother gave birth to a child and my father didn’t gave me the love as he showed me before. When I was 8 years old my father died. I became a semi orphan.
My mother stayed with me at my grand parent’s home for 2 years.After that she got married to a guy from Langtang.She left me alone with my grand parents.When I was 4 years old she went to langtang to stay at her husband’s home.Now she has got three children.She didn’t take a good care of me and I became orphan.
I live in Bridim with my beloved grand parents.They are very old.My grand father’s health was weak and he was blind. Now he is no more in this world..If he wanted to go some where he took the help of stick.My grand mother is healthy enough and she still works in a small field.
I am physically weak.My right hand is disabled. I can’t do anything in my future. For that I am very sad when I see my friends.
About my education, I didn’t have any opportunity to join school ever in my village school. My grand parents didn’t join me to the school. They told me that I am an abnormal child not like other children. They said that I can’t write as my right hand is disable. As a result I was forced to look after cows and sheep. Sometime they let me to protect their field from birds, monkey etc. So my childhood life is full of tragedy looking after cows, hens etc.
When I was a seventeen years old, I met a woman from America.She really knows my problem. She promised me to help me. She sponsored me to join at Language Institute at Kathmandu. There I learnt English language basic computer course. She had sponsored me for 1 year and she said that she had her own problem and she stopped sponsoring me. I am really thankful to her as she helped me to open my eyes.Now I can read and write English.I can speak English little.
Once she stopped sponsoring me, I went back to my small village.But I couldn’t find any job. I decided to work as a trekking guide/ porter.Than I did a trekking guide training for 45 days. I have been trekking guide since 1999.
Since I went to foreigners to different remote places of Nepal, I saw many children from poor background and didn’t get the chance to go school like me in my childhood.I really felt extreme pity on them as I faced the same problem as them.I really want to do something for them to change their life but my income source is inadequate and I cant to anything for them. To make my aim to provide education to the poor children I need a helping hand of kind people like you all. So me Dawa, on the behalf of poor and needy children of my poor country Nepal would like to request to help them as I find every children is special and they can touch the stars if they get the quality education.
