BAG PROJECT ended

Delivery of school bags to our godchildren

child-school-bag

An action made possible thanks to the donation of a family member of the association which we thank.

On 2019, the purchase and then distribution of school bags to all the children sponsored by Ecoliers du Monde made it possible to fulfill several objectives:

  • operate a sewing workshop located in Chapali Banghal in Nepal and therefore give work to Nepalese people,
  • recycle materials like jeans, bags of rice, truck inner tubes, umbrella cloths…
  • provide children with sturdy, waterproof bags.

Two Nepalese Saru and Pramod are behind the creation of this sewing workshop.

Faced with the lack of quality school bags in Nepal, a study was carried out by two French volunteers to make bags locally.

Thus was born “Nepali Bags of Change“, a local ethical and ecological sewing workshop.

  • ethical because this workshop allowed the creation of 4 jobs,
  • ecological because the raw materials are recovered,
  • economical because the cost price is low.

These bags are sold at a reduced cost to NGOs and humanitarian associations who give them to Nepalese children..

Remise Cartables 1 L

Marion and Mano, two volunteers from the Ecoliers du Monde association hand over the school bags during their visits to schools.

Pramod, our main correspondent in Nepal was present during these handouts of bags to schoolchildren.

The children were proud to leave with bags made in Nepal.

This action made it possible to purchase around a hundred school bags from Nepali Bags of Change for an amount of €1000..
