Story
This is the story of the founder: MY STORY:
I'm Siddartha Bdr Shahi. I am from a very rural village of western Nepal. To reach my district, I have to walk up and down many mountains and hills. Many people in my village are still ignorant of schools, motor vehicles, telephone, television, etc. You will have difficulty imagining just how undeveloped the region is.
I was born in what modern Nepali would call a middle class family in 1995. My mother told me that before I was born, she had been very sick for several months and I was born with deformed/disabled legs.
My father had already deserted my mother and moved in with another woman. This created a huge problem for my family.. Soon my father decided to desert us completely.. By that time, my mom was already pregnant with her next baby that resulted in the birth of my sister.
My mother was kicked out of our home by my father, who was now supporting his next wife. My mom was left with nothing except with three dependent children; me, my sister and older brother. As the village is undeveloped and lacking education, almost everyone is superstitious and religious. As a result, they believed that our misfortune was a sign of bad luck or a punishment of the gods. My mom especially, was treated very badly because she lacked a husband: It must have been her failings that caused him to leave!!!! . We were completely isolated from the village community. My mom would be continually moving to different villages in search of work and help.
Finally one lady promised to provide us with shelter and food, if my mom would work for her. The lady gave us a measured quantity of food every day. If we had intense hunger on some occasions, it would be a major problem. There was no extra food.
