During a recreational visit, Rtn. Bhai Raja Panday and Rtn. Purna Man Sakya had an opportunity to explore the area near Kurintar and found a new to be build Aama Samuha (Mother’s home) near their stay. Aama Samuha (Nepali: आमा समूह, lit. 'Mothers' Group') is a Nepalese voluntary group formed to raise awareness about gender equality, issues affecting women and other social issues. Women involved participate and organize group meetings to discuss their problems and support each another. They planned to set up a revolving fund where they contribute a certain amount of money each month. Group members in need of financial support can borrow the necessary sum from their aggregate fund collection. Besides helping one another, these groups are active in campaigning right causes & raising voices to create a safer and equitable society for women.
President aspired to support the community of such diligent women and thus the first project of The Rotary Club of Himalayan Golfers came into existence. Charter President Rtn. Bhai Raja Panday proposed Kurintar Mother’s Home building project to the club members on a weekly meeting held on 9th Feb,2022. The financial aid provided then was for the construction of community hall for holding group meetings and gatherings. The Rotary Club of Himalayan Golfers raised contribution from distinct club members to support the project. Charter member Rtn. Phinsto O Lama was kind enough to become a bridge between RCHG and Yekikrit Krishi Aama Samuha aiding communication and financial assistance.
