The Kumbeshwar Technical School (KTS) in Kathmandu provides education, vocational training, and then paid employment to the most underprivileged of people living in this area of Nepal. In the past six years it has grown from a group of 15 to 240 knitters and dyers.
Workers can use their money to educate their children at the KTS primary school, which is something they could never have dreamed of previously.
