Working Together
We partner with local organisations in Nepal who share our values of love, compassion, hope, and inclusion. This ensures that all the work you support is based on an in-depth understanding of the people and communities we serve.
Our primary partner is INF Nepal, as we work together with the global INF family to bring fullness of life to the most disadvantaged people, focused on healthcare and community development in western Nepal. Our other partners bring additional specialisms in areas such as disaster relief and education, as well as experience of working with marginalised groups in other parts of Nepal.
Healthcare
Providing treatment and rehabilitation for people with disabilities, stemming from INF’s origins in leprosy clinics. Today’s work also includes spinal cord injuries, hearing issues, developmental disorders, and palliative care.
Resilient Communities
Helping end poverty and suffering in remote districts by improving people’s livelihoods, increasing access to healthcare, adapting to the impacts of climate change, and reducing the risks of natural disasters.
Education
Improving access to a quality education focuses on young people who are most at risk of not completing their schooling – girls, children with disabilities, and people who face discrimination because of caste or ethnicity.
Emergency relief
Responding to natural disasters, including floods and landslides caused by Nepal’s annual monsoon season. Our partners also help people impacted by major incidents such as earthquakes.
