Sponsorship Program for Educational Materials


Over the years, volunteers representing Family Volunteer Services of Nepal (FVS) have traveled throughout Nepal, bringing books, audio visual materials, and other supplies to orphanages, village schools, libraries, drug rehab centers, and the Bhutanese refugee camps in the East of Nepal. Much of this was sponsored through grants from Family Care Foundation.

Many schools outside of the Kathmandu Valley are simple, sparse places, with little aside from a chalkboard and a notebook for each child.

Story books or even basic educational materials are often an unaffordable luxury.

While we cannot help everywhere, we try to give as many books and materials as possible to centers and schools where as many children as possible can benefit from them.
