REACH for Nepal Foundation is a Canberra based charity that was established in 2015 when nearly 9,000 people lost their lives during the devastating earthquakes that year.
It is entirely run by volunteers here in Australia and all donations are transferred to Nepal to deliver both humanitarian and development projects in western Nepal identified, defined and prioritized by community and village leaders.
Fundamentally, the purpose of the foundation is to improve lives of Nepalese people in remote parts of western Nepal, the Gandaki Province, through projects that enable villages to become more self-sustaining and provide children opportunities for quality education and good health.
REACH for Nepal also provides the opportunity for Australian educational institutions and other groups to provide aid in areas aligned with the foundation's objectives.
The work of the foundation was officially recognised by the Nepalese Ambassador in late 2018 for supporting social services, education and health and broader groups in Nepal
