MISSION:

• To carry out necessary works for the economic, social, educational and intellectual development of children and adolescences in the society, who are poor, helpless and forced to live in hardships.
• To provide education and health care services facilities to poor, orphaned and destitute children and adolescences in Nepal.
• To provide food, living support, stationery, and uniforms to children and adolescences of the economically deprived section and also to grant scholarships for studies to poor and bona-fide children and adolescences of Nepal.

GOALS

SHORT-TERM GOALS:

• Sponsorship and Donations – It is of the utmost importance that we obtain a steady source of income through donations, sponsorship and fundraising projects to secure the future of Yatra Nepal and hence the future of our children. We need such funding to provide these children with the most fundamental of life’s requirements – food, living support, health care, clothing, education, stationary, uniforms and a safe, secure home.
• Counseling Service – In Nepal, there are virtually no avenues through which people can access mental healthcare. It is our goal to provide a counseling service for our children they have been the victims some of the most adverse conditions imaginable and have obviously mentally suffered as a result. We place this goal as a priority because the mental health of our children is equally as important to us as their physical health.

LONG-TERM GOALS:

• Further Education Fund – Our children are currently still young, with the oldest aged only sixteen. It is our hope that when they each complete School that we would have established a Fund to provide for vocational training or university fees.
• Expanding – It is of course our ultimate goal to expand so that we will be able to take in more poor and marginalized children, and help as many young lives as possible.
