ASHA NEPAL is devoted to preventing trafficking & abuse of girls and caring for survivors. With your help, we care for girls rescued from sex-trafficking, forced labour and abuse. We provide trauma counselling, health care, educational support, and emergency and long-term residential care.

Story

2015 Update: In light of the recent tragedy in Nepal on April 25 2015, we have revived the Justgiving page to channel your support to the children directly. With several thousands dead and many more injured or missing, we will do whatever we can to make your donation count; we have no overhead costs. Thank you for your support!

Background
The Ashah Orphanage Home was founded in 1999 to support homeless women and children in the Kathmandu area (with Ashah meaning "hope" in Nepalese). Many of the kids would have lived without parents or a place to stay for  several months, if not years, but have now found a home and a future with our support. The organisation recently accommodated a further 10 new little girls, and expanded to assist these children who range from ages 4-12 by providing food, clothing, housing, education, and medical cover through to adulthood.

The UK-based Asha Foundation (not related) ;have kindly agreed to receive donations into their account JustGiving towards our own endeavor and will receive a small percentage of donations towards their own cause as thanks. To earn your support, my colleagues and I are partaking in various fundraising initiatives as you may have been directed here accordingly. Any form of contribution will be greatly appreciated and I'll personally ensure it will be used only for the cause itself being involved in the management of the entity.

Please donate via this website.

Thank you all in advance for your support.
