About Program
Himalayan Foundation Nepal aims to place volunteers with health backgrounds in rural communities, where people do not have access to health facilities. This is because the government is unable to provide adequate health services to all of Nepal. Further, the rural populations of Nepal are often unwilling to seek medical advice or contemporary health services because of religious and/or cultural concern. Many people die without getting the benefit of modern medication. HFN is playing an active role in linking these rural populations with those around the world and within the country who have experience and training in the health field. We welcome all interested medical students, individuals, professionals, organizations, associations and other experienced groups to join the health volunteer program in Nepal. HFN is organizing medical camps in the rural areas of Nepal in coordination with a local medical college, private and government hospitals and other organizations who are working
