CSR
Adopt a school
Ncell believes in its slogan 'With you,always' and has been contributing in various fields of the society. Out of
them, education comes top in the priority. Hence we have been involving in projects which help to increase the
literacy rate and education of children. Education, we believe is the basic need of a human. However due to the
lack of budget and infrastructure, several children from rural areas have been refrained from it. Ncell, from 2011
ventured to extend its help in education under the program 'Adopt a school.' Ncell has joined hands with Save
the Children and adopted various schools of rural Nepal. The schools from underprivileged remote districts
lacking infrastructure and education materials were in our priority list and were supported for the same.

Ncell Digital Libraries


Traditional teaching methodology still prevails in our country. Although some schools in urban areas have
adapted to modern techniques, schools from rural areas have not been able to do so because of the financial
constraint and most of them do not have a library where students can get additional knowledge than that of the
course books. Those having also are not able to update and manage. Thus, Ncell has initiated to help students
of such schools by establishing digital libraries. Not only were the students, our partner for the project Help
Nepal Network provided trainings for the teachers with orientation to use such libraries and to benefit from the
perks of information technology and projects are being monitored by Save the children.
These libraries have been useful for the students to acquire extra knowledge and helped to increase the
numbers of computer literacy. Schools have appreciated our efforts. Inspired by the success of our endeavor, we
have continued the project in 2012 and assisted more such schools. This has also helped to control the absence
and drop out ratio of the students to a larger extent.

Scholarship for girl children


Due to poor financial status and orthodox thinking that a girl child does not need much education, deserving girl
students from rural areas do not get higher level of education. Thus, Ncell selected few girl students from
Karnali Zone who had passed the SLC level and provided them with scholarship to pursue their education up to
the graduation level. The students were identified by Save the Children based upon their results and financial
condition. We have continued and expanded such support in 2012 as well.

Voice against girl trafficking


We have contributed for the self employment of women from underprivileged family. This has helped them to
uplift their financial status and control the girls trafficking caused by poverty in some extent. We provided
financial assistance to eight such women to set up micro enterprises based on their skills. The project was
executed with the assistance of "Shakti Samuha" and is monitored by Save the children. We are determined to
continue such programs in future too.
