Located in Naranthan (Budhanilkanta), 20 minutes away from Kathmandu Valley, and just next to Shivapuri peak, HCC Orphanage offers the best compromise between city life and stunning Nepalese landscapes.
Kids go to school from 10am to 4pm and are off every saturday. During the day, when kids are not at home, you’ll be able to visit the city, but also to walk to the temple around. You can even take some days off to trek.
The volunteer apartment is located 4 minutes away from the orphanage. It includes wifi, bathroom and kitchen. This apartment will be shared among the volunteers.
During your stay, you will be eating local food, mostly dal bhat every day. Hope you like rice! 2 meals per day is provided but you can also purchase some snacks for kids after school.
The minimum duration of your stay will be 1 month
You have a good English level.
Motivation and pro-activity is key for this humanitarian mission
You need to be open-minded, adaptable and autonomous.
Don’t worry, the former volunteers will be there to guide you in your experience and a Facebook group had been created to support the new volunteers.
All volunteers have kept amazing memories of their experience at HCC orphanage. Please find some of their testimony on our blog.
