Tahara Nepal is not limited to any specific geographical region of Nepal. Tahara Nepal is working in the Kaski District and other neighbouring districts. However, it can also be extended to other areas considering the gravity of situations and availability of resources.

How does Tahara Nepal work with children?

First of all, Tahara Nepal selects the area, identifies the needy children and selects them. Tahara Nepal can support the children in 2 different ways:

1)      Direct support: 

Accommodation: Tahara Nepal provides accommodation for the children in the center. The center is a safe and clean living environment and it assists the children in their personal development.

Education: Tahara Nepal gives the children the opportunity to get a good education using the private school system of Nepal for primary and secondary studies. Once the children complete their School Leaving Certificate (SLC), between the age of 16 – 18, Tahara Nepal helps these young adults prepare for their future independent lives.

Health Care: In Tahara Nepal, the children have access to a clean accommodation, healthy food and medical care. All children are up to date with necessary vaccinations, and medical treatment can be provided if necessary.

Other Activities: Tahara Nepal offers activity material for the children, such as toys and books, and also visits various places in Pokhara to hand out this material. 

Visits to their family: Tahara Nepal understands the importance of the children staying in touch with their relatives (if available) and with their community. It is important that the children know where they come from and who the members of their family are. The children can visit their family during school holidays and any other times that are available (as long as it does not interfere with their schoolwork). Tahara Nepal will make sure that these visits can be held at least once a year for each child.

2)      Indirect support:

Tahara Nepal encourages children from remote villages to have a proper education. Where possible, Tahara Nepal provides books, uniforms or other kinds of educational materials. Tahara Nepal also follows up on these children.
