Send Deserving Children to school in Rural Nepal
In Nepal's remote villages and rural countryside, many bright children simply don't have the opportunity to go to school because of their family's poverty. Yet, with an education, these children will be able to break the cycle of poverty for their families and themselves.
Through Nepal Youth Foundation's Village Scholarship program, your donation of $100 is sufficient to provide a year of education to one of these impoverished though deserving children. Your gift will change a child's life.

Free Bonded Nepali Girls
The Indentured Daughters Program is one of the most important of NYF's programs to help children in Nepal. This project rescues young Nepali girls who have been sold into bonded servitude by destitute families who need the income from their daughters' labor. NYF's humane answer to this horrible practice is to bring the girls home to be educated, while giving the family either a piglet or goat which, when sold at maturity, will provide a profit equivalent to what the daughter would have earned.

Abir's Garden Playgrounds for a Safe Place to Grow
Combatants for Peace (C4P) are building playgrounds as memorials to a child, Abir Aramin who touched so many hearts. They need your help. C4P brings their members, former Israeli and Palestinian Combatants, to meet, listen to the other, and work to end the Occupation. Through these playgrounds, C4P makes a tangible difference for Palestinian children and parents in the West Bank, speaks for the safety of all children, and introduces Palestinian children to Israelis who aren't soldiers.

Rescue Children Suffering From Severe Malnutrition
Fifty percent of Nepali children under five-years-old are malnourished. Among the consequences of malnutrition are stunted growth, increased susceptibility to disease and permanent intellectual damage. Malnutrition is the main cause of death for as many as 50,000 Nepali children each year.
NYF's unique program restores health to a malnourished child while simultaneously educating the mother in proper childcare, hygiene, and nutrition. And all of this can be done with a donation of $260.
