Overview

Mission

Our mission is to be catalysts of hope and transformation to the vulnerable children of Nepal.

What it reported doing in 2025

Our accomplishments for 2025 include: Child Sponsorship Program: Served 140 children, providing educational, physical, spiritual, and emotional support, along with a Christmas gift for each child. Camp Hope: Hosted 4 camps across 3 locations, serving 240 children with medical care, meals, care packages, and family support, led by over 50 volunteers. AIM Home: Provided housing for 6 girls and served as a hub for education, spiritual growth, counseling, and vocational training for students and families in the community. Water Wells: Launched a new initiative, successfully digging and dedicating 11 water wells in Rautahat, Nepal to provide access to clean drinking water. Eye Care Clinics: Purchased an Auto Refractor machine to be used for eye care. We hosted 4 free clinics, screening 350 individuals and distributing 150 pairs of eyeglasses to those in need. Golf Tournament: Raised $17,470 through 20 teams, 76 players, 10 hole sponsors, 8 partners, and 18 volunteers to support the water well initiative.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 78% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of total spending goes to programs and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filing reports few safeguards for money sent abroad.
