WHO WE HELP
Kidasha Nepal is a children’s charity that improves the lives of children living in extreme poverty in one of the poorest countries in the world
STREET CHILDREN
Sandesh is one of thousands of street children, and like 4 out of 5 street children he abused solvents as a way to cope with the hunger, pain, cold, and physical and sexual abuse suffered living on the streets. He is now turning his life around. Find out more...
CHILD LABOURERS
With 1 in 4 people living below the poverty line, it is unsurprising that 1.6 million children have to work. Many of these children, like Anuj and Sarita, are trafficked from villages and tricked into working. See how we got them both back home...
VICTIMS OF CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE
Sexual abuse is extremely common in Nepal, it is estimated that at least 1 in 4 girls have been victims of sexual abuse. Sadly, abuse of this nature is often perpetrated, or ignored, by parents and caregivers, as in the case of Ishama. Read her story here...
CHILDREN LIVING IN URBAN SLUMS
Nepal has over 500,000 children living in extreme poverty in urban areas, where they are particularly vulnerable to violence, abuse and exploitation. For example, children like Chinta, who was being exploited by local youths and about to drop out of school. See how we changed that.

Recognising the need for a better support system for women and girls in Nepal, the British Embassy in Kathmandu have launched a year-long mentoring programme, open to women aged 18 to 30 residing in the country.
After her visit to Nepal, Grant (Special Envoy for Girls’ Education) discusses the importance of placing women and girls at the heart of international climate action in order to drive change in local communities and help families adapt to climate impacts:

Where COVID-19 has seen some of our hard work undone, your donations mean support, shelter and care for Nepal’s most vulnerable children. They are, quite simply, life-changing.
To commemorate the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty, we’d like to thank each and every one of you that has donated to Kidasha over the years. Whilst we have reduced the neglect, abuse & exploitation of thousands of children across Nepal, more remain at-risk. https://t.co/aedhL156ub
