Ayushma Nepal has always known that she wanted to be a singer, but she couldn’t afford to study music as her parents struggled even with her fees for school. NMC discovered her talent and is supporting her to realize her dream. She is 15 years old. She comes from a hard-working family. “I have always loved to sing, I love vocals because I know I can sing”, she says. Although she didn't come from a musical background, she listened to the radio avidly, developing a love of pop music and quickly discovering she could sing a song even after hearing it only once. Likewise, she holds the passion for dance too.

At NMC we believe it is important for all young people to know that if you’re not from a privileged background, you can still have a chance.
