Elderly benefits in Nepal

Our Nepali Representative, Pinkey Malla (kneeling), watcher over all age groups in Kathmandu. Often living without electricity or reading material, the elderly might be unaware of government benefits, may not know how to navigate the complicated government offices, or may not have transportation through the chaotic Kathmandu streets.  Pinkey guides them through the process so that they can receive much needed government assistance.

In her own words, she states, "We went to government office to get ID card to some oldest people above age sixty.  They didn't know before about that card which help them to get 50% discount in government hospital and vehicle.  We wrote application for each and submit all the details they got ID card of oldest citizen.  They became very happy, most of them don't have children to help them."
