The major component of the foundation is that we organise community rebuild & trekking trips to Nepal for educational institutions and other groups, to provide aid in areas aligned with the foundation's objectives.
NEPAL COMMUNITY TREKS
Nepal community rebuild trips are becoming increasingly popular as these trips include an element of trekking as well as undertaking a specific project determined and agreed between the travelling group and the foundation. Typically groups contribute through assisting in the rebuild of schools, water tanks and other infrastructure, but there is the opportunity for you to contribute in any way that complies with the objectives of the foundation.
In fact, we prefer not to be prescriptive in what and how you contribute, as this limits opportunities for assistance. We currently focus on two categories of trips
2. General Public
Secondly, we offer trips to the general public. Each year we invite the public to join us in a trek of moderate-intensity and participate in one of our projects. For some participants, these trips are life-changing events, with a number of people coming back on later trips as they experience a deep sense of purpose and achievement.
