What Does Karunamaya Foundation Do?

We support children and youths, with love and kindness, as our name suggests, in becoming independent and capable youths contributing towards the socio-economic development of the nation and the world by improving their access to formal and/or vocational education and personal development.

In the process, we hope to provide critical infrastructure through construction of schools in remote villages, capacity building of school management by providing them additional academic resources as well as providing essential training to school management and teachers.

We understand that not every child can excel academically while they might have a talent in other areas such as music, sports, etc.

We find it extremely important "Possibilities in life are not merely limited by the ability of a child to excel academically, though minimum levels of education need to be ensured".

No one has ever become poor by giving

The main goal of Karunamaya foundation is to develop education in rural communities in Nepal. After the devastating earthquake that struck Nepal on April 2015, we decided to bring our help providing infrastructure to public schools and training to their teachers.
