Sponsor a child
We have sponsored 75 children from different rural villages but still there are so many children left deserving immediate support including orphans, victim of natural disaster, Victim of armed conflict, disadvantaged and extremely poor. Your kind support will change the destiny of those misfortunate children. You can truly make a difference sponsoring a child.
Give a gift
Do you have anything to distribute among kids of Nepal? Do you have colors? Pencils? Dolls? Clothing? Maps? Or anything, which could be useful for kids? Please do send to us, which will be most useful for poor kids in village who do not have many resources.
Sponsor Mini Projects
Do you wish to take a challenge sponsoring / organizing a mini project? Do you want to organize Quiz contest? Debate? Drawing and Artwork? Poetry? Picnic? Road Dramas? Documentaries? It would be a most promising action. Work with children and have fun.
Provide Technical Support
o you have any technical knowledge? Are you a filmmaker? An IT professional? Any what? Your technical support will be most valuable for since we can make our projects effective and can promote our charity. For example, if you are a filmmaker, Documentaries and Docu dramas are best tools for awareness programs.
