    Good Karma Foundation Nepal

    Our background

    The April 2015 Nepal earthquake (also known as the Gorkha earthquake) killed 8,962 people in Nepal and injured 21,952 more. It occurred at 11:56 Nepal Standard Time on Saturday 25 April 2015, with a magnitude of 7.8M  .

    Just after the deadly earthquake  another humanitarian crisis invaded this  beautiful country Nepal which is known as  The 2015 Nepal blockade, which began on 23 September 2015 and lasted about six months,

    Earthquake   pushed the country in hard time and the  the Blockade even made the things worst .  This was an economic and humanitarian crisis that severely affected Nepal and its economy in 2015 .

    It was the time when country need to work on construction having enough supply but  after the 2015 Nepal blockade came Nearly all sectors of the economy have taken a severe hit, from tourism to transport to domestic factories to agriculture. Nepal faced a hard time once again in the history .  the series of incident like Earthquake and blockade for the landlocked country made the Nepal weaker  and life of the peoples tougher .

    Nabraj Ghimire  also known as Raj came in  a thought to start an organization that he can work to help the needy peoples in his country under the name Good karma Foundation , which officially get registered in Kathmandu Nepal company of register office at 24 April 2016 nearly after a year of the date of Gorkha Earthquake formally .  The organization started welcoming the foreign volunteers to support Nepal  education , construction of school buildings and housing for the under previlaged peoples of Nepal .   Foundation grew quickly as a some of the  leading volunteer  organization in Nepal   offering the  programmes able to the perfect platform for all those to see the world, meet like-minded people and engage in meaningful volunteer work  in life bringing happiness in peoples  life in its country. 

    For an example A British Volunteer Sonja from UK in her 70s came Nepal and taught the children's in the mountain village of Nepal which added a brick in the foundation  start up .  she also later publish her book titles  'Siurung Nepal' and is available in amazon for he volunteers to read the volunteer diary who spend in Nepal in post earthquake as a  teaching volunteer .

    While the foundation  got registered Raj & his team , worked on construction of the houses to needy peoples , sending volunteers to various part of the country. his contributions to support the local schools in Annapurna region of Lamjung is highly important .

    Now Good Karma foundation stands as an organization in Nepal to support the volunteers  and make the high use of them.  we have now programmes from Mountain village Teacher to a medical assistance in city hospitals , Powering the public schools in Kathmandu , Teaching to monks and nuns an English based in Kathmandu, holistic community development , organic agriculture worker , seasonal rice planting and honey hunting festival,  and some trips combined with Teaching and trekking to Everest Base camp or doing farm works and Annapurna base camp trek.  

    Good Karma  foundation is also the first organization who recently lunched the Teaching programme in Bhutan . Now this can help the volunteers to travel there for a reason .  volunteers can be a climate ambassador in the Everest Region and work in a vulnerable snow Leopard research trip in Annapurna's . We are covering the whole Himalayan areas of Nepal in our programme as much as possible for the volunteers  to be in a different place and programme as per their choice.

    Foundation do have multiple programmes ranges form city to corner of the mountains giving as much as choice to volunteers and so as the price . if you want to spend a long time spending less we have carefully brought the programme like Holistic community development  & Support Organic Agriculture .  We work extremely hard to ensure that our opportunities are affordable for everyone who wants to make a difference.
