OUR MISSION

Changing the world by empowering Nepal's children

“If we would all have the attitude that we can do anything,
that we can be anything …
If we would follow our dreams and our hearts …
We could change the world.”
– Maggie Doyne

We do this by providing quality education, a safe environment, and through inspiring others.

WE BELIEVE IN COMMUNITY

We believe that by sharing our story and engaging in a broader conversation with our global community, we will help to inspire and encourage people everywhere to take action, find solutions to global poverty and work to create a better world. We believe that in the blink of an eye we can all make a difference.

Every day we strive to create a sustainable organization working to educate all of Kopila’s children until they are ready to enter the world as happy, skilled, confident, self-sufficient, and English-speaking adults. We believe we can serve as a model for quality education in Nepal. We will strive to provide our children with scholarships (should they choose to pursue higher education), and the skills required to enter the workforce.

We place a huge emphasis on working together with our local community, conducting programs and providing scholarships for girls and socially vulnerable young women, thereby encouraging women’s empowerment and gender equality. We offer vocational training skills to develop self-sufficiency including sewing, cooking, gardening, husbandry, computer skills, business, and entrepreneurial skills. These skills not only benefit our home and school by providing locally grown food and locally made uniforms, but also benefit the community.

We believe that by sharing our story and engaging in a broader conversation with our global community, we will help to inspire and encourage people everywhere to take action, find solutions to global poverty and work to create a better world. We believe that in the blink of an eye we can all make a difference.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

Our organization operates at the grassroots level of community and focuses on promoting sustainability and self-reliance in everything that we do. This organization will not offer the band-aid solution or quick fix money to individuals. We believe that if given the proper tools and initiatives, people and communities anywhere in the world can raise themselves out of poverty. We will focus on building and growing the communities we work within by implementing programs that reach the poorest and benefit the whole.
