Project Description and Impact

United Community Nepal (UniCoN) is dedicated to empowering marginalized communities in Nepal, particularly focusing on women, girls, and children from Dalit and Indigenous backgrounds. Our recent initiatives have centered around enhancing STEM education, promoting gender equality, and supporting community development. However, despite our efforts, we face significant challenges in securing sustainable funding and establishing strong partnerships necessary for the long-term success of our programs.

Our E-STEM initiative aims to bridge the educational gap for underprivileged students by providing hands-on learning experiences, mentorship, and resources to foster interest in science and technology. Additionally, our Football4Future project promotes inclusivity and life skills development through sports for marginalized youth. Both projects require ongoing financial support and collaboration with various stakeholders to expand our reach and impact effectively.

Need for Support:

To achieve our goals, UniCoN needs expert support in fundraising and partnership development. Specifically, we seek guidance in identifying diverse funding sources, crafting compelling grant proposals, and building sustainable relationships with corporate, government, and non-profit partners. This support is crucial for scaling our STEM programs, ensuring the success of our community initiatives, and ultimately creating a lasting positive impact on the lives of marginalized youth in Nepal. With expert assistance, we can enhance our organizational capacity, secure necessary funding, and drive meaningful change in our communities.
