World Vision Nepal

World Vision started its long-term development program in Nepal in 2001 to contribute to the well-being of children. At the present, we have programs in 16 districts: Udayapur, Sarlahi, Mahottari, Rautahat, Sindhuli, Kathmandu, Lalitpur, Lamjung, Jumla, Kailali, Achham, Doti, Bajhang, Dailekh, Jajarkot and Kanchanpur. Our goal is to improve the well-being of 0.8 million children, particularly most vulnerable.

We are working toward a reality where children enjoy good health, are educated for life, experience the love of God and their neighbours, and are cared for, protected and participating in their communities.
