Celebrating 22 Years of Hope & Transformation

Dear Beloved Supporters,

With profound gratitude and joy, we celebrate the 22nd anniversary of the Namaste Community Foundation (NCF). What began in 2003 as Namaste Children’s House a humble sanctuary for orphaned children in Pokhara has grown into a beacon of hope, transforming thousands of lives across Nepal.

Guided by compassion and fueled by your unwavering support, in two decades we’ve achieved milestones that once seemed impossible:
• 106+ children rescued and nurtured.
• 176+ children educated and guided toward careers.
• 530+ women empowered with livelihood skills.
• 25,000+ hearing-impaired individuals treated for free.
• Disaster relief provided during earthquakes and COVID-19.
• Schools upgraded with libraries, clean water, and more.

Your generosity has allowed us to stand firm transforming challenges into opportunities for healing and growth. Every step forward has been made possible by the dedication of our volunteers, partners, and supporters like you.

As founder, I am endlessly inspired by your belief in our mission. My purpose to uplift the vulnerable remains unwavering. Judgments may come, but they pale in comparison to the joy of a child’s educated smile, a woman’s newfound independence, or a family’s restored hope.

Our shared achievements prove the power of unity. Together, we’ve turned compassion into action, and action into lasting change. As we look to the future, your continued support will light the way for even greater impact.

Thank you for 22 years of trust, love, and partnership. Let’s keep igniting hope one life, one community at a time.

With deepest gratitude,

Visma Raj Paudel
Founder & Chairperson
