Dashain & Tihar Drive 2004
All of us have our cherished reminiscences of the early years of growing up and these have a special place in our Heart. But there are children who do not have much to be happy about their childhood. They have no dreams but jostle with nightmares even when they are awake of abuse, criminal parents, of no education. But even dreams of disadvantaged children can be fulfilled, if someone spares a thought for them or leads a helping hand. And then the dreams take wing. Thus, to create festival environment of Dashain & Tihar festival to those jail & orphan children and also to use the time rightly to spare time doing something for those children during the festival, the event was organized dated 9th November, 04 by OnlyAtNepal, Nepal Scout District Office, Kathmandu in co-operation with The Mystic, Mantra International and other volunteers.
