HIMALAYAN HOPE HOME
A protection center in Kathmandu where girls are provided with shelter, parental care, love, and every educational opportunity.
OUR SOLUTION & APPROACH
A home environment that every girl deserves
The Small World founded the Himalayan Hope Home in Kathmandu as a child protection center and to serve as a preventative strategy for at risk girls. Girls belonging to underprivileged communities who are vulnerable to precarious trafficking circumstances are provided a safe shelter, parental care, love, and every opportunity for their holistic development. At Hope Home, our goal is to help them realize they cannot only dream but they can also achieve those dreams. Their lives are very precious and so is their childhood.
Once living in abusive and poor conditions or all by themselves in pain and agony, these children now enjoy being part of a true family, sharing love, care, and respect for each other. Everyone goes to a normal school and they are provided with proper health care, a sense of safety, nutrition, and a much needed family environment.
















PROJECT OUTCOMES
30+ Orphan girls have been housed since 2013
Since 2013, 30 orphaned or abandoned girls of rural Solukhumbu have been residing at Hope Home.
At Hope Home, our goal has always been to help them realize they cannot only dream but they can also achieve those dreams. Their lives are very precious and so is their childhood. Here is what one girl said about her past:
“Being an orphan felt like a curse to me, I was helpless and had to work in poor conditions to survive.” – Shangita Rai
Today, we are proud to say that Shangita has found a home and has graduated school in 2014. And…this is her second year in college!
