About the project

WORKING FOR STREET CHILDREN

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

We are a not-for-profit, non-governmental volunteer organization (NGO) based in Kathmandu, working for marginalized & disadvantaged communities of Nepal. International Volunteering in Nepal is one of the strategies we use to empower rural communities. We have deployed thousands of national and international volunteers in Nepal. The community service volunteer has significantly impacted to achieve our mission.

Our mission is to empower marginalized communities through equitable, inclusive, and holistic development programs.

As one of the responsible community service organizations, our mission is to empower marginalized communities through equitable, inclusive, and holistic development programs. Our volunteer organization welcomes volunteers in Nepal from all over the world to achieve this mission.

Our Approach: We are probably the first volunteering organization offering volunteer opportunities to use a fully holistic approach to community development. We believe education, health & environment, economy, and basic infrastructure are the major pillars of community development. Our community programs support these development pillars. Hence, we focus equally on all four development pillars while implementing our projects. We have designed all our International Volunteering in Nepal projects based on these four pillars of development.

💼 What the programme involves

Bring a ray of hope and an embracing smile to the deprived street children of Kathmandu. This city alone has an estimated 1 000 street children. School is not an option. They work the streets, seek meals in garbage heaps, sleep in the streets, and fall prey to traffickers and other abuse. As a volunteer/intern you could make a world of difference. The children take great comfort and joy spending time with those who truly care, that which has been lacking all along. Daily Activities • Provide make-shift education activities. • Engage in recreational activities with children. • Teach basic cleanliness and hygiene. • Spend time with and provide them with love and care, and direction. • Work at our partners drop in centers to provide basic care for these children.
