Yangrima
Ex-student Society (YESS) was established in 2000
and gained legal approval in 2003 as a non-government
and not-for-profit organization. It is an organization
grown out of the spirit of the alumni/ae of Yangrima
School situated in Helambu, north of Kathmandu.
www.yangrima.org. In the initial days, our aims
were to build a platform for ex-students of Yangrima
to get together, inform each other about various
scholarships, counsel each other about academic
institutions in Kathmandu, and establish an IT center.
Later on, after the forced closure of the Yangrima
School in 2001 and as we went on growing in the
city, we felt the need to extend our aims and objectives.
Today, YESS is successful in establishing itself
as an organization to provide a platform for all
of the students of the Helambu region to learn and
grow together. This means that YESS membership is
also open to non-Yangrima students who believe in
our vision. |
Vision:
YESS envisions a strong and united well-functioning
organization committed for educational development
in the wide range, thereby building the capacity
and confidence of its member to achieve our shared
goals on time supplemented with innovative ideas
to prosper in the global society. |
Mission:
The mission of YESS is to provide resources
for quality higher education for children in the
Helambu region, and one way to ensure this is by
reopening the Yangrima School. |
Root
and Aim:
Yangrima Ex-Students Society (YESS) was conceived
in 2000 after the first batch of SLC graduates from
Yangrima arrived in Kathmandu to create a platform
to inform and counsel about higher study and scholarship
opportunities for future Yangrima graduates. During
that time, Yangrima School was running well and
we thought about building YESS as a resource center
for Yangrima in the future. YESS would like to thank
Gopal Lama, the founder of Yangrima School, for
taking the initiative in gathering ex-students and
allowing the Yangrima School Office to be used as
a YESS meeting center for certain period of time
until we established one for ourselves. |
Principles:
YESS is basically guided by following
principles:
That we will always look back the way we have come
from.
That we combine our heart and mind to get the works
done
That we are more friends than members in the organization.
That we learn and grow locally and intermingle globally
That we will move fast and not leave anybody behind.
That no one of us can be stronger than all of us. |
