Rate of malnutrition dropped by 30% in 2025
In 2023, children in Wards 1 & 3 of Tirhut Rural Municipality faced an extremely high malnutrition rate of 83.46%. By 2025, the rate had fallen to 53.22%, thanks to NYF’s ongoing work through the Caste Equality Project. This includes free lunch programs at schools and Community Learning Centers, as well as other community nutrition programs.
First Educating Dalit Lawyer graduated
NYF celebrated an important milestone this year when Pradip BK became the first graduate of our Educating Dalit Lawyers Program. He completed his BALLB degree, finished his internship at Bhusal Law Associates, and is now preparing for his licensing exam and upcoming community service.
3 new Community Learning Centers constructed
In September 2025, three new Community Learning Centers were constructed as part of our Caste Equality Project in Saptari District, bringing the total number of NYF’s centers in the district to five. Of the five, two are fully operational with programs like Peer Counseling, Early Childhood Daycare, and Adult Literacy Classes running every day.
New vocational training school in Dhangadi
With the financial support from a generous group of supporters in the UK, NYF built a new vocational school in the city of Dhangadi in Western Nepal. Electrical, welding, and plumbing trainings are currently being run by 6 trainers.
These 2025 highlights were all made possible because of support from the NYF Community. We hope it offers a glimpse into how your kindness directly impacts the individuals we serve every day.
Thank you, and dhanyabad!
