EducationSecondary Education Scholarship
One of the Educational initiatives is to encourage basic secondary education for all children in the village. This is currently done by sponsoring basic education for 5 continuous years of education for deserving candidates. This 5 year commitment encourages the families to continue the education for their children.
University Education Scholarship for Girls
A scholarship focused on University Education for young girls in rural Nepal will soon be setup. This was decided after a study found that most families prefer to educate boys and girls are married off at an earlier age due to financial constraints. A scholarship fund aims to bridge this gap.
Funding Teachers
Local teachers and study center teachers will continue to be sponsored with funds generated by Future Village society
Educational Material
A part of the funding has been allocated to buying Educational material (books, notebooks, stationary and dictionary) for the children. There have been proposals to install computers (and learning DVDs, material) in the study center.
Teaching Trips
Future Village Society team members visit Katunge village and with the help of local guide help/guide other volunteers to contribute to this project. For more information, refer to the "Contact Us" section

Infrastructure & HealthClean Energy
One of the aims while improving the infrastructure is to ensure that the energy needs that come with progress and growth are met with renewable and clean energy. As part of this, Solar panels and Wind Mills have been installed to satisfy the energy requirement of the Study Center, Volunteer stay and Library complex.
2nd Study Center Complex
The second study center complex in neighboring villages has been proposed to replicate the success of Future Village team from 2004. This will act as a springboard to increase the reach and impact of this initiative. The second complex will be modeled on the first one with student study center, teacher's accommodation and volunteer stay combined into one.
Sanitation
There will also be a focus on sanitation along with other infrastructure initiatives. This will primarily involve building of toilets in the current school and future school/study center projects. As part of the curriculum students will be taught about sanitation and hygiene.
Library
Library complex for students to study and read books has been built and painted. The Future Village society will continue to contribute books and stationary for the library.
Health
The Future village society has organized and funded health camps and dental camps in the village and will continue to do so on a regular basis.
