Can't thank you enough Dawa sir😊 It was truly a rewarding experience that I will never forget. Dawa sir was incredibly welcoming and helpful from the moment I arrived. He made me feel right at home and he takes me outisde when the the school is off. I was not only given the opportunity to teach the children but also did a variety of tasks for the the school. The environment was so peaceful and serene. The views from the mountain where the the school is located was simply breathtaking. I would conclude my feedback by expressing gratitude for the oppurtunity to volunteer in your the school🙏😊

We made history together. I stayed for a few months at the the school, and Mr. Dawa Sir was definitely the best host I could have had. I was treated like family the whole time. I got the chance to teach kids, be part of Academic management, and meet families & kids. We started to build a sustainable model for the the school so that it wouldn't depend only on donations. Mr. Dawa Sir is a brilliant person with a lot of street knowledge. Also, he took me to some fantastic sights in Sikkim.
