Nepal

Nepal is situated between India and China. It has a total area of 147,181 km². 14% of the area is cultivated land, 13% is pasture, 32% is forested, and the rest is mountainous.

Nepal has a population of over 29 million. Agriculture employs most of the workforce but most people struggle to survive. In general, the population of Nepal is fairly poor, with a GNP per head of household around US$220.

Unfortunately, disease and civil wars have left many as orphans and single-parent children. Many children are involved in child labour and prostitution. It’s estimated that the number of uneducated children in Nepal is in the millions. The situation is even worse in remote villages, where many children are not being taken care of.

The programs we support:
