Sponsoring a child allows you to witness first-hand the impact of your donation, allowing you to follow the growth and success of an abandoned or orphaned Nepali child. Student sponsors and charitable donations are the backbone of our organization and we are always looking to grow the Himalayan Children’s Charities family! 

We have three levels of support, ranging from $300-$3000 per year (or $25-250 per month), and donations can be made annually or monthly. Students can be sponsored by individuals, families or groups, and you will receive updates about your student’s progress and well-being. Please contact us at contact@hccnepal.org to request a list of students in need of support.

Sponsorship Levels at Himalayan Children’s Charities

At HCC, we have two primary education programs that provide different levels of educational support, care and mentorship that help children in need.

Sponsor a Child in Rural Nepal

The RISE Program provides scholarships and support for orphans and impoverished children in rural areas that were heavily damaged or destroyed by the 2015 Nepal earthquakes. The program enables these at-risk children to stay in school and receive an education, greatly reducing their risk of being trafficked or forced into child labor.

$300 per year (or $25 per month) supports a student who lives with family and attends a local government school. This amount covers school fees, uniforms, books, stationary, lunch money, and special workshops and programming.

$1200 per year (or $100 per month) supports a student who has no family to care for them and live in a local boarding school. This amount covers academic fees, room, board, books, uniforms, exam fees and tutoring.

Sponsor a Student in Kathmandu

HCC’s PEAK Program supports disadvantaged, marginalized and impoverished students for college, technical school or university degrees. This holistic program provides education, mentorship and a supportive family environment.

$3000 per year (or $250 per month) supports a student in this program and covers: school tuition; accommodation at Khushi Ghar or nearby apartments, HCC’s family-structured home; all personal costs, such as clothing, toiletries, school supplies, and all medical care; life-skills training; and enrollment in the Mentorship Program which fosters self-awareness, encourages leadership and discovery of inner talents and strengths.

Other Ways to Help

There are many ways to get involved with HCC beyond student sponsorship. Check out our Other Ways to Help page to learn about all the ways you can support HCC.

We have recently created an endowment fund to ensure the support of our students for years to come. The Legacy Endowment Fund is aiming to provide 500 university scholarships over the next 50 years. Please contact us at contact@hccnepal.org to set up your gift today.
