The Big Black Mountain Challenge · 16 May 2015

We provide long term, effective, sustainable support to 30 physically disabled children at the New Life Centre in Nepal and with virtually no administrative costs. The children usually come from remote and mountainous areas where life for a disabled child is particularly difficult and there is very little medical help or access to education. Disability may occur due to a variety of reasons but often because of untreated accidental injuries and severe burn injuries as a result of babies and young children being left unattended with open cooking fires while their parents work the land. We work closely with the children and staff at the centre assessing their needs and liaising with the local board members of the centre about the best way we can help. The main focus of our support is a commitment to provide a new home which will help the centre save a third of its budget for rent to use for other important expenses. We also help with other essential day to day costs. We liaise with other Nepali and foreign donors of the centre to ensure a web of integrated support that minimises reliance on any one agency alone, thus guaranteeing on going medical care, a caring home, a healthy diet, good education, as well as post school training and further study where appropriate.

Story

Thank you for thinking about sponsoring me.

This is something that Mummy and Daddy have done for the past 3 years. I hope that the 11 years that Mummy has been dragging me up mountains will come in handy when I need it.

On top of it being a big challenge for me to walk 17.3 miles up and down big hills I really want to raise money for the children of Nepal who are now homeless or with lost loved ones. So it would be absolutely amazing if you could help me.
