REACH for Nepal Foundation

REACH is an acronym for  - Rebuild, Educate, Assist, Children/Communities (giving) Hope for Nepal. The foundation was established to provide practical and financial assistance to rural Nepalese communities primarily affected by the 2015 earthquakes

Our Mission

The purpose of the REACH for Nepal Foundation is to improve the lives of Nepalese people primarily in remote parts of the Gandaki Province in Western Nepal.

Our Vision

Working at grassroot levels, we build stronger and more resilient communities through our health, education and village sustainability projects.

What we do?

The REACH for Nepal Foundation enables villages to become self-sufficient and empowers children and women through quality education and healthcare programs.  ​

Our Focus
Areas

1.

Earthquake ResilientSchools & Health Clinics

Together with leading architectural, engineering and industry collaborators, we design purpose-built classrooms and health clinics, using locally sourced materials to create high quality, innovative and scalable solutions.

2.

Health & Hygiene

A core purpose across all our work is investment in clean water, health and basic hygiene practices. We do this through investment in infrastructure, resources and education, consistent with United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

3.

Education

Our education programs and resources are guided by the needs of the community, with a focus on enabling children to flourish at an early age, and educating girls and women providing an opportunity to breakthrough the poverty cycle. 

4.

Village Sustainability & Disaster Response

Our Village Sustainability projects provide economic opportunities for vulnerable families in remote villages. During earthquakes, floods, and epidemics, our Disaster Response delivers immediate emergency relief—including medical assistance, food supplies, and direct livelihood support.

"My particular love for the REACH for Nepal comes from the fact this organisation was borne out of the friendship of two Canberra locals – people like you or me – who wanted to make the world a better place. This is about each of us making a small difference, in our own way."
