Volunteer's Story || Application || Terms & Conditions || HOME

We charge our volunteers a nominal amount for raising funds.

Our organization has no external funding and is relying on the volunteer program fees to be able to work and carryout all of our  projects.

We are trying very hard to keep our costs down because it realizes volunteers are making a big sacrifice and have saved for a long time to come to Nepal.
