As more and more children come to live at the orphanage, this website will provide timely and detailed updates about the children, their education, and other long-term plans. In the meantime, you can help. The Himalaya Foundation anticipates the following needs:

Ways you can help

You may choose to contribute to the cost of setting up the orphanage. The combined total for the acquisition of the land, the construction of the orphanage, and the furnishing and educational materials will exceed $1 million (CDN) over the next five years.
A  child who you would like to sponsor.
You may choose to sponsor a child. The cost of providing proper accommodation, clothing, nutritious food, medical care, and education for an individual child costs approximately $60 (CDN) per month.

 

 

Volunteering.
You may choose to volunteer your time. There is an enormous amount of work to be done in the orphanage.The Himalaya Foundation will provide room and board at no charge to volunteers willing to work with the children. Contributions to the cost of their room and board by volunteers who are able are appreciated. More details on this program are now available and we hope to welcome our first volunteers in the next few months.

 
The mission of the Himalaya Foundation is to provide a home and family environment for poor, disadvantaged, and orphaned children below 15 years of age. The Himalaya Foundation will endeavour to use the local educational system to provide formal schooling. The Foundation anticipates the establishment of a scholarship fund to assist children to pursue further schooling in India.
