Make a difference this Giving Tuesday

At Sherpa Adventure Gear, we believe every journey should lift others. Today, on Giving Tuesday only, your impact goes even further: for every purchase you make, we’ll donate three full days of school to a child in Nepal through our partners at Room to Read.

Why three? Because today is about amplifying generosity. But at Sherpa, giving back isn’t reserved for just one day a year—it’s woven into who we are. Every purchase, every day, helps provide one day of school to a child in Nepal, creating opportunities that last a lifetime.

So today, your kindness travels even further.

What is a School Day?

Donating a school day through Room to Read is so much more than just ‘time at a desk’. Room to Read provides holistic support through teacher training, working with schools to improve the literacy curricula, creating libraries and training teachers to manage them, creating reading activities and providing books for children in local languages. To learn more about the additional work Room to Read do to make education accessible, you can read Pratik’s story here.

Secondary school girls also benefit from individual mentorship, peer-to-peer mentorship and life skills education to help girls practice essential life skills such as leadership, resilience and critical thinking. All skills that will help girls navigate challenging situations and key life decisions including advocating for themselves and their peers to stay in school and graduate – something that continues to be a challenge for girls in Nepal. To read more about how Room to Read have supported women in advocating for themselves, you can read Sulochana’s story here.

In Nepal alone, Room to Read have over 9000 literacy program schools and nearly 60,0000 girls enrolled on their Girls’ Education Program, helping to keep girls in school and give them better opportunities and life skills that they wouldn’t otherwise have had.

Together, we’re lifting communities and expanding opportunities. Find purposeful gifts that make a difference in our Giving Tuesday gift guide.
