MISSION STATEMENT

The mission of Himalayan Children's Charities is to provide education in a safe environment to orphaned and abandoned children in Nepal.

BACKROUND:

Being a child in rural Nepal is fraught with challenges. Kids are often abandoned by destitute parents who cannot afford to support them. Even kids with families will often drop out of school by the age of 8 to begin work to support themselves. Life isn’t much better in the cities, where orphanages are overcrowded, underfunded and understaffed. Children are often left to beg on the streets to feed themselves.

Sonu

As toddler, Sonu was abandoned in the Gaurigaun province of Gaushala, Katmandu.

Sunita

Sunita was found discarded in the road by patrolling police in Kathmandu when she was about 5 years old.
