We are the Everest Foundation Nepal. We
Give Women and Children a Helping Hand.
We believe in living our values; our work should
reflect our beliefs and our values should be reflected
in all of the work we do.
Our Creed:
We believe:
- In
multiculturalism and inclusion
- That
with help and support society’s marginalized
can have a fulfilling future, that everyone
has unique contributions to make, and that
hope can be rekindled
- That
pure drinking water, decent sanitation, proper
nutrition and good health care are the foundation
on which all future efforts must be built
- That
literacy should be a basic civil right and
individual self sufficiency a societal goal;
that quality education is the shortest route
out of poverty and despair; that safeguarding
the environment is part of every responsible
educational curriculum
About those whom we serve and those
who volunteer, we believe:
-
That
no program should be designed or executed
without input and involvement from those
it is intended to serve
-
That
those who give of their time and talents
and resources deserve the respect for their
contributions and the satisfaction of knowing
the eventual outcome of their efforts.

children leave their home and come to the
streets for variety of reasons such as the

attempt to earn money in activities such
as begging, collection rags/ garbage, shining
shoes, dishwashing in hotels, local transport

to Phaplu airport and then a 20 minute walk
to Salleri- the district headquarters of
Solukhumbu. more..... |
