WHAT PEOPLE SAY:
Mohan Chaudhari from Conflict Victimized Orphan Support Center
Said he was overwhelmed with excitement because he had not been to such picnic programs and on top of it, he also got some clothes as he possessed only a school uniform and one extra set of clothes.
Sushila Rai from Women’s and Children Social Welfare said, " I had a wonderful time. I knew beforehand that we would be getting clothes and shoes from Help Nepal Network, but did not know that we
would get gifts as well. I enjoyed games although I could not be the winner. I hope I will win next time.
