Nepal is an extremely poor and underdeveloped country, with most of its population relying on small-scale agriculture. The Himalayan country of Nepal is renowned for its breathtaking scenery, its rich cultural heritage and its friendly people and is dotted with both Hindu and Buddhist temples and sites of pilgrimage.

Volunteering in Nepal means lot from sharing extensive knowledge and helping the peoples of this country taking back the memories of beauties. Volunteers work in a range of village-based projects with local people. Participants experience the traditional way of life, the culture and the beauty of Nepal, while engaging in an exchange of ideas and work practices in the poorest communities.

You are having the greatest moment of your life helping those poor families and communities with us in the field of sanitation, health, environment, education and more.

A) Culture Immersion
Cultural (exchange) Immersion programs can be arranged in most areas of Nepal. Participants will be placed with a Nepali family in a small rural village or within a city for the duration of their stay. During this period volunteers will have the opportunity to participate in local festivals and get the opportunity to exchange their culture. Volunteers should remember that this is a cultural exchange and that an effort to offer some knowledge of their own home culture and customs to the family with whom they stay is expected.

Participants in the program will not go through training in Nepal with the other volunteers. During their home-stay, volunteers will attend 2 hours of language lessons in the morning and in the afternoon. They will also have the opportunity to visit and help out at the local school. Nepali culture is distinctively friendly and open and participants are made to feel as though they are part of the family.

Volunteer also have chance to do adventure, which includes village visit and hiking, cultural dance, white water rafting, trekking and a visit to Chitwan National Park and elephant safari. This program is a good opportunity for volunteers to learn about the Nepali culture, lifestyle, language, and people.

B) Teaching English
Nepal Adventure Point promotes sustainable solutions to world poverty and disparity through global partnerships in development, education, health, and service. More than 80% of the children from Nepal's villages are unable to access a good educational system. This is due to the remote mountain geography and the inability of the country to fund the needs. Motivated teachers are often made to teach without basic school supplies in schools that are in poor condition. Due to these hearth-wrenching conditions, our volunteer program has initiated an effort to improve these conditions by providing basic necessities and facility improvements. To do this, we need the donation of books and stationeries.

The children in the Nepal begin learning English in grade four in our village school and grade one in private school, so it's not a surprise that most of the student have basic level of English. The benefits of learning English from a native speaker are inspiring for the young children. We place volunteers in rural elementary schools outside of Kathmandu to assist the local teachers with their English classes and other subjects. These volunteers are able to experience living in rural villages and will observe the true meaning of "community."

Most of our schools welcome volunteers who want to get involved in other aspects of school life, or run extra-curricular activities and after-school clubs. Alongside your conversational English classes you could help with Sports. You can teach football, cricket and volleyball. Everyone enjoys having a volunteer who is keen to teach English or other subjects in the morning then get involved with arranging sports, drama and song in the afternoon.

C) Improves Orphans & Abandon Lives
In the least developed countries like Nepal where millions of children can not eat, get clothing or education, we are trying to help at least some of them so that they can at least find the true meaning of life. Today's children will be tomorrow's Parents. We believe that good children can make the good society and also the better world to live. As an orphanage volunteer, you will collaborate with our staff to teach the basics of the English language and help orphans with life-skills, by participating in administrative chores, health education, games, and by drawing and painting with the children. By working with orphaned children, you will be molding the young minds of talented, blossoming, charming children.

These children are in unfortunate positions in life, and the impression that you leave on them will remain for the rest of their lives. This volunteer work is a great mission and provides a real, life-changing experience for you as well as the children. Some orphanages serve as informal education training centers, and when you volunteer to become involved in this program, you will be teaching these innocent children what it means to have someone who cares for them. For this reason this small charity organization is working to change the lives of poor orphans and abandoned in the community. We need your help to succeed. Donations are always welcome and appreciated; we're able to respond to the growing needs of our host communities because of the generosity of people like you.

D) Health Care Improvement
Each year, many Nepalese die or suffer unnecessarily due to lack of health education and access to adequate health care resources. The sick in the mountain regions or villages sometimes die long before a physician can even diagnose. Because of the poor transportation, patients often have to be hand-carried in bamboo baskets to the nearest health center, often many miles from their village.
Individuals with special knowledge in the following areas are always needed.
Primary Care and General Medicine
General Dentistry/ Oral Surgery
Pediatrics
Gynecology and Women's Health
Health Education
HIV/AIDS counseling

E) School & Community Maintenance
Without a school, where do kids get an education? Sadly, the answer is: They do not. Volunteer Program is one of few organizations that targets its activities towards a specific school and strives to bring that school up to basic educational levels. Your contribution will be targeted to one school and you will be able to track the progress of your school and its students. Education is a priority in Nepal because it is a crucial building block in the country's reconstruction and revitalization. However, thousands of children are deprived of an education because there are not enough schools in Nepal, especially in rural areas where 75 percent of the nation's population lives.

The Nepalese government simply does not have enough money to meet the demand for the construction of new schools. We strive to close this educational gap by funding the construction and renovation of kindergarten and elementary schools.

Nepal is moving from an agricultural society into a commercial one. This transition is stressing the education system at all levels, especially when it comes to primary schools. We strive to create access to basic education for students in rural and underserved areas so they might have a chance at participating in the emerging economy.

F) Environmental Awareness
This programme mainly aims to raise awareness on environment conservation. The programme deals with teaching environmental science in school, youth clubs and women group. Volunteers will teach environmental education for about 2 to 3 hours each day for 6 days a week. When training is over, volunteers will stay with the host family in their placement area.
