PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Sri Rameshwor Higher Secondary School was established in 1951. There are five different buildings in the school premises with over 600 students. One of the buildings in the east with six rooms was in dilapidated condition thereby hampering the day to day education of the school students.

The major problems that the school was facing were:
* Windows, doors and roofs of the building had completely worn out.
* The class rooms got extremely heated during summer and got extremely cold during the winter because of low height.

Support from HeNN and the local authorities was used to reconstruct the dilapidated building and repair other problems.

WHAT THEY SAID:
Mr. Ram Chandra Poudyal, (Principal of the school) said, “The financial contribution made by HeNN could not have come at a better time. HeNN’s commitment towards supporting the school financially helped the school to secure additional funds of US$6,708 from various local and district officials of Sankhuasabha. We have been able to add three more rooms with the total funds collected so far. We sincerely appreciate your efforts and commitment to support us.”
