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.

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.
