PRENSA REGMI | RISING STAR OF KIDS

Eight-year-old Prensa Regmi from Birauta, Pokhara is using her free time for social work.
From the very start of the lockdown in March, she started garnering praise for distributing surgical masks at a nominal cost to those who could pay and totally free to those who couldn’t.
Prensa studies in Pokhara’s Sishu Niketan Boarding School and is currently in the third grade. With the school closed due to the lockdown, she decided to utilise her time to contribute to the society. So, she used Rs. 15,000 that she had with her, to which her father added another Rs. 15,000, and bought masks worth Rs. 30,000 for distribution.
In addition to distributing masks, Prensa also runs a food bank where those who can, donate food items like rice, pulses, cooking oil and salt and those who can’t, take what they need. This young social worker lives by a noble belief. “We need only start from our homes to develop the society and the nation. We need not give much. A handful is sufficient. No one should go hungry,” she shared.
Furthermore, Prensa also wants to help students like her with their studies. That is why, she also distributes free exercise books, pens, pencils and others stationery items. Her parents run a stationery shop Namaste Stationery in the city.
Even before the lockdown, Prensa used to use her lunch money to feed the helpless people sitting on the roadsides. These days, her hours are spent going around Pokhara, getting on metro buses, distributing free masks and teaching people how to wear them. She advises everyone she meets to follow the government’s safety protocols against the coronavirus.
