KATHMANDU, April 11: Upholding its core Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) objective of Societal Responsibility, Himalaya Airlines has continued its annual contribution to Prayas Nepal through the "Step Towards Education" campaign. This year, the initiative was conducted at the commencement of the academic session on April 10, 2024. Ujjwala Dali, head of the Brand Department, presented essential educational materials such as course books, notebooks, school bags, and school shoes to the children of Prayas Nepal.

According to a press statement issued by Himalaya Airlines, in addition to the annual support, to enrich the children’s knowledge and to give them a brief understanding of aviation history, the airline organized a field trip to the Aviation Museum located at Sinamangal Kathmandu. By providing the underprivileged children first-hand exposure to the world of aviation, H9 aimed to ignite their curiosity, and broaden their horizons beyond the traditional classroom learning. Appreciating the airline’s philanthropic cause, Aviation Museum supported H9’s CSR activity with Free of Charge entrance and a well guided tour for the children.

"At Himalaya Airlines, we believe in the transformative power of experiential education in shaping future leaders and fostering a passion for exploration and learning. We are committed to creating opportunities for the underprivileged children and our 'Step Towards Education' campaign not only aims to provide educational materials but also seeks to inspire and guide the children through unique experiences of knowledge gaining and sharing," the statement quotes Ujjwala Dali as saying.

"We are deeply grateful to Himalaya Airlines for their unwavering support to our cause; the field trip to the Aviation Museum has undoubtedly left a lasting impression on their minds. Such initiatives not only contribute to their academic growth but also broaden their horizons, opening the doors to new possibilities," the statement further quotes Mani Joshi, president of Prayas Nepal, as saying.       

Since 2017, this initiative has been a keystone of the company's CSR efforts aimed at empowering underprivileged children through education.
