The story of girl who have to sacrify her desire for education.

Kusum Tamang the 14 years girl living in Dhulikhel,Nepal has to changed her life because of her father deed.She has four sister and a mother who is  going to deliver one more new baby.For many years she is living normal life with her family.Both of her father and mother they work in daily wages basic.What their parent earn for one day is the source of eating of whole family.Her father always seek son rather than girl.


One day her father left the family and married to the next women.Her mother is pregnant and unable to work which was only the source of family income .Because of this thing she had left her education which was supported by education for poor project.Currently,her scholarship has shifted to her sister .She is working as a dish washer in one of the hotel near kathmandu university. One of the founder member of education for poor Johann steiner try to help her by giving money earn by her doing work in hotel and re-join school ,but she has to  leave  her education anyway since she needs to take care of her mother after baby delivery so she refuses the help .Her all sisters are small who are not unable to work so she doesn't get any physical support either.

This is one of the story of girl but you can find more children who are washing dishes in hotel,working as conductor in bus. And their story is not much different like her.Education For Poor has been supporting such type of children for their education.
