Improving healthcare and education in Tsum, Nepal
Charitable Registration # 824895197 RR0001
Compassion Health Centre
Our clinic is located at 3,300 m in Lamagaun village the high Himalayas. We provide free healthcare to villagers in this extremely remote region. We work local leaders and the community to ensure quality care and cultural appropriateness.
We employ an Auxiliary Nurse Midwife, Health Assistant, and caretaker.
Compassion Education
Our early education program serves children ages 4-6 from nearby villages. We provide play-based learning and pre-literacy skills. The children are learning things like sharing, manners, and community building. It also provides an opportunity for their parents, who are primarily farmers, to work during the day while their children go to school.
We also provide a free, nutritious hot lunch for each child.
