 I have been working with the home as an INFO Nepal volunteer for three weeks, encouraging improved hygiene, teaching English, and encouraging play activities.INFO Nepal has only recently established contact with this home, and has made a commitment to sponsor the educational costs of the children. The home has no formal support from the Government, and is dependent on donations from many sources to provide for the day to day living costs of the children. Margaret Ferrer - UK - May 2006


Our volunteer experience with INFO Nepal was one of the most rewarding and challenging periods of our lives.  We spent only a few short weeks at the Sacred Home Orphanage in Jorpati, but the kids made it feel like it was just a few days.  From the moment we arrived in Nepal, the INFO family made us feel comfortable and secure in a new country.  The thoughtfulness and experience of the INFO team allowed us to mesh well with the children and environment of the orphanage. Hans Mouser & Digvy Singh - USA- June 2006

During my time in Kathmandu with Info Nepal I was based in Humanitarian Concern Orphanage. I spent 3 weeks at the orphanage which was based in Mahargunj. My time at the orphanage was a truly amazing experience and I have many fond memories that will stay with me forever. . The family treated me like one of their own and I participated in chores such as giving out Daal Bhaat to the children to helping washing dishes. Sonal - UK - April 2006

Info Nepal is a Social Welfare Council registered charity that offers volunteer oppertunity in Nepal.
