Robin And Ritika

Before Robin and Ritika were sponsored, their daily routine was sleeping, roaming around and playing in the busy streets near their home. Robin and Ritika were always getting into trouble and were mischievous. When Mysmallhelp members went to visit Robin and Ritika for the second time, Ritika's face was swollen and she had stitches from falling for a single story building. Just after few days from this incident, Ritika was hit by a motorbike and her hands were wounded.

Following their visit, MySmallHelp members became worried about their situation and their future.The new school session had already started, but MSH didn't want the children to waste a whole year without school. One of the members of MySmallHelp visited Nepal Yuvak Secondary School and asked the Principal to admit the children. The Principal agreed. Robin and Ritika were given a small test to understand which grade they should be in. Robin was admitted to Grade 1 and Ritika to Nursery.

Once they were enrolled, MySmallHelp brought them school books, exercise books, other stationary items and uniforms. Today, they both enjoy going to school daily. They usually do their assignments after school rather than playing in the streets. This has greatly eased their Grandmother's worry.

MySmallHelp is very thankful to Kimm Fearnley for sponsoring them
