Since 2013, Les Enfants du K2 has financed a boarding school in Skardu, Pakistan, that houses children of porters from the village of Askole. Without this help, the children would not be able to continue their educations. Through Les Enfants du K2, they are fed, housed, equipped for school, and helped with their school work by extra tutoring in a private institute, all free of charge.
A 2021 grant from the Cultures of Resistance Network enabled four girls to live and study at Les Enfants du K2’s boarding school, Upper Braldu Children of K2 Hostel, in Skardu, Pakistan.
A 2019 grant from the Cultures of Resistance Network supported the housing and education of two students that are children of porters on K2 mountain.
In addition to support from the Cultures of Resistance Network, director iara lee arranged an outside grant in 2022, which enabled eight girls to live and study at Les Enfants du K2’s boarding school, Upper Braldu Children of K2 Hostel, in Skardu, Pakistan.
