A bag full of joy and inspiration

" I am Sanchaman Tamang. I used to study at Shree Narayan Lower Secondary School, Helambu, Sindhupalchok. 8 years ago; I got a red school bag support from HELP. I was a grade 2 student at that time. Currently, I have completed my secondary-level education. I want to become an engineer in the future. The red school bag provided by HELP changed my learning habits. My parents used to work as a farmer during the season and work as labour during the off-season. They hardly ever could afford my studies but were not able to pay for my extra expenses, requirements, and educational materials. I used to take my books in hand and go to school. My books used to tear and get wet during the rainy season. Besides, I used to borrow other educational materials from my friends. One day, I got a bag filled with stationery, colour pencils, and a geometry box provided by HELP. I was so happy; I felt as if my inner wishes were fulfilled. It was the first time I filled a drinking water bottle which I always used to see other children studying in a boarding school. I could draw my dreams and fill them in with colours. I still become nostalgic about that moment; it always brings me a big smile. My books and notebooks were safe. My dreams were filled with colours. It was due to that one bag I wanted to go to school and study because I used to feel if I studied, then I would get more bags like that, which could bring joy and inspire me not to give up despite all hardships in life.”
