With deep conviction that strong communities (stimulated by the spirit of servant leadership & volunteerism) are the pillars for peaceful & prosperous Nepal, we have been assisting communities to address socio-economic & environmental challenges to help build a better future under bottom up approach.

Under building sustainable local communities, we have implemented projects related with: Emergency Responses, Post-Disaster recovery, Agriculture Empowerment, Micro-Enterprise development, Social Awareness & Mobilization, Environment Conservation, Education/Health Empowerment, Water & Sanitation Hygiene (WASH), Community based infrastructure development, Skill Development, Livelihood Enhancement, local market strengthening & more -targeting mostly rural areas under right based approach. In the future, we would like to expand our rural development initiative to ‘adopt a village’ programs as well.

We also mobilize local & international volunteers for:- emergency responses, adding value to our grass root level ongoing/past projects, & lending a hand to various organizations affiliated w/ us. Volunteers assist in sectors such as: govt. schools, local health units, local farms, temporary shelters constructions, community infrastructure developments, Handicaps centers, etc. Through ‘labor of love’, while making a difference & bringing joy in the communities, the volunteers also go through inner positive transformation via unique experiences.

We are also engaged in leadership development/motivational trainings seminars under the spirit of servant leadership targeting school & college students, other youth groups, & working professionals. As an organization standing up for inclusivity, we have been providing scholarships to the physically & economically challenged trainees on the training/seminars.
