Himalayan Children's Care Home - College Fund

$305 of $5,000 goal
Given by 10 generous donors in around 5 months

Raising funds to help the older children from the Himalayan Children's Care Home go to college/University!

International

The Himalayan Children Care Home is a non-profit social organisation in Pokhara, Nepal. It is home to 87 children between the ages of 5 and 20. These children come from some of the most deprived families of the Upper Mustang region. Lama Pasang, the founder, has selflessly taken these children in and provided them with food, shelter, education and health.

This year, 7 of the older children passed their School Leaving Certificate (S.L.C) and are in the process of applying for colleges or further education. The courses they are applying for include teaching, management and roles in IT. However, as we know, tertiary education is not cheap and some of the children still need help to pay for their course.

Rachael Low's involvement (page creator)

Over the past 4 years, I have been spending some time volunteering at the Himalayan Children's Care Home in Pokhara, Nepal. Here, I have had the privilege of meeting and getting to know 87 of the kindest, most caring and amazing human beings I have every met! Never have I ever met such a loving group of children, who may have little but still give everything. In return, I would like to help them in any way possible.

Use of funds

All funds raised will go directly to the older childrens' college fees!

2% Effective Fee
On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
