About Program

The Himalayan Foundation offers English Teaching Volunteer programs across Nepal. It is an enriching and satisfying experience where volunteers get the opportunity to teach students who are eager to improve their conversational English skills. Students born into the current Nepali school-going generation value their education and are motivated to be taught new things about the world. Volunteers work either in Nepali public or private schools, in either a regional or urban setting. Our schools are scattered across Nepal, in areas such as Kathmandu, Kathmandu Valley, Chitwan, Pokhora, Hetauda and Nawlprasi. They may also be asked to assist in other school activities such as sports and other extra-curricular projects whilst volunteering. Private schools offer the opportunity to teach other subjects other than English, however due to the language barrier, this option cannot be made available in public schools. If you have additional skills in extra-curricular activities like teaching game

Yes, I recommend this program

One Week With Kids!

my wife and i spent one week volunteering with here and can not praise this family organization enough, with 100% of energy and love going to the kids this is a truly honest and selfless organization, sparing no expense on the kids education, health and experience this is a righteous cause that needs your help.

We shared a week with the family and were welcomed as an integral part, we walked the kids too and from school, helped with homework, played games, sports, danced and laughed with the children.

this was a comfortable and authentic home stay experience giving insight into the family life of the orphanage.

I strongly recommend this organization as the best way to give directly to the community and see how far your help and love goes.

What would you improve about this program?
it really was a comfortable experience focused on building relationships and sharing love with the kids, i cant think of a way this could be improved. they are doing above and beyond what we expected and gave us lifelong memories.
