Sponsoring a child in Nepal with Plan International is one of the easiest ways to improve the lives of all children and to make sure girls have access to equal opportunities.
By becoming a child sponsor, you guarantee a child – and all children in their community – have everything they need to grow, learn and plan for their futures.
Child sponsorship helps tackle the root causes of discrimination, exclusion and vulnerability, and support some of the world’s most vulnerable children to thrive.
Sarita, 15, is a Plan International Youth Advocate devoted to doing all she can to end child trafficking in Nepal. “Children are not only the future of our country but they are the present too. When they are trafficked, I fear my country may never be able to develop or flourish.”
After participating in anti-trafficking and child rights training, Sarita began sharing her knowledge with peers in her adolescent girls’ group. But she didn’t stop there. Sarita and her fellow advocates began to lead workshops and awareness-raising events for parents and children in their community, helping them understand the dangers of trafficking and what to do if they are ever targeted.
“Child trafficking is a denial of their rights. That’s why I would like to ask everyone to come together to help stop child tracking,” Sarita explained. “Our country can only develop and flourish to the fullest if child trafficking is stopped.”
