The initiative was started in response to the story of Pratibha Didi—who had come from Kavre to Kathmandu to educate her child but faced difficulties in the pandemic-enforced online world—posted by Human’s Kathmandu on their social media platform. After learning about the story,
Vianet went ahead and supported the family with the internet to enable the child’s education.
This turned into a CSR campaign called Good with Internet that supports families that cannot afford the internet.
In the second year of the initiative,
Vianet helped people like Dalli didi from Jumla—who has set-up a street shop at Charapath’s junction to educate her four children, Amala didi from Dolakha, who sells panipuri at Kapan to educate her son and a daughter and the likes.
The company plans to help many such families in the coming years, and has called for people to reach out to the company via their implementing partner @Human’sofKathmandu.
