Wholesome experience and opportunity to be part of the family at the project center. Was humbled by the efforts of older children taking on responsibilities and being of mentors to the little ones. My inner child refreshed with opportunities to exchange and take part in non-screen games, creative activities and overall exchange of conversations with all children at the center. I spent a month with the project, overall felt way shorter. There's plenty to help with, studying, diy stuff around the center and conversations about values and ethics. Grateful for opportunity to contribute 🙏

Volunteering at the project Nepal was such a fulfilling experience—connecting with the kids, embracing the culture, and truly feeling part of something meaningful. I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking to make a real impact! The children are amazing, full of energy and kindness, and the staff is incredibly welcoming. Every day was rewarding, from helping with daily tasks to simply spending time with the kids. the project provides a loving environment where you can truly make a difference. An unforgettable experience—I'd do it again in a heartbeat!

If you're planning to travel in Nepal and love children, I highly recommend volunteering here. The living conditions may not be the best, but the connections you make and the impact you have are absolutely real. From the moment I arrived, I felt like part of a family, and honestly, one month wasn't enough—I already miss those wonderful kids. This experience has been one of the most meaningful and unforgettable parts of my journey, and I'm so glad I chose to volunteer here.
