Future Village - An introduction

Future Village is the name given to a two storey cottage in a remote village in Katunge Village(Dhading District) in Nepal. The Village, which is located 100kms north of Kathmandu, was founded in mid 2004 by a group of enthusiastic visitors from Hong Kong, who raised fund to build the cottage. This project has so far achieved the following:

• 87 primary students benefit from child sponsoring programme (around USD 50 per kid)
• 4 students got support for higher education in Kathmandu
• Helped improve water facilities & upgrade Primary School to Junior High School
• School has been rebuilt and extended to 8 Junior High students. Total: 160 students
• 3 Full Time teachers are supported by FV project
• New project from this May to help each family to build toilets to improve the sanitation
