| Lalit with Kate in Kalikot hospital, Nepal (a typical Nepalese leaving ceremony!) |
Our first doctor-to-be is Lalit: Lalit was desperate to train as a doctor, but with the total tuition fees running towards
£20,000 this was never more than a dream.
Kate Yarrow worked with Lalit in Nepal for a number of months, and he stood out from the rest of the team as being an
exceptional worker (he was a health assistant, ie somewhere between being a nurse and a doctor).

| Our first student - Lalit, with his wife |
His father is a farmer, supporting alone a family
of ten children. Lalit is 25, and has a 2 year old daughter. He has successfully completed his 2nd year at Nepalgunj
medical college. He has agreed that in return for his tuition fees being covered from Doctors For Nepal, he will work in an
isolated Nepal community for the following 5 years. By donating to the charity now, you will be supporting Lalit's ongoing
training. You will also directly be funding the place of our second student who will commence at Patan Academy in April. (See
link below for medical school information).
