Arriving today all the way from Denmark, Alberte and Freia are joining us for a 4-week volunteering journey at our Womenโs Empowerment Center.
We know many of you have been asking about the current world situation.

Thank you for choosing Volunteer Society Nepal. We are so excited to see the impact you will make over the next month.

Ghode Jatra is the second day of a three-day festival known as Pฤhฤn Charhe (or Pahan Chare), which is heavily celebrated by the Newar community in Kathmandu. During this, idols of various deities, including the Living Goddess, are brought out to visit temples and parade through the city, reinforcing the divine protection over the city.

Professional Exchange and Global Connections: Welcoming Hanz to our Centers in Nepal ๐ณ๐ต๐ณ๐ฑ
At Volunteer Society Nepal (VSN), we believe that the most impactful work happens when we share knowledge across borders. This week, we had the distinct pleasure of hosting Hanz from the Netherlands, who visited us to see the sustainable community projects where his wife, Ellen, has been volunteering for the past four weeks.
Beyond being a supportive partner, Hanz brought a wealth of professional experience from his career working at a disability center in the Netherlands. This made his visit to our Center for Children with Disabilities particularly meaningful.
Bridging Expertise
Hanz spent time touring our facilities and observing our programs for womenโs empowerment and disability care. It was a wonderful opportunity for a professional exchangeโcomparing notes on how different cultures approach care, inclusivity, and empowerment for the most vulnerable members of society.
Family and Philanthropy
While Ellen has been busy teaching at a local school and supporting the Women`s Empowerment Center, having Hanz witness the daily impact of her work highlights the ripple effect of volunteering. When one person volunteers, an entire community of supportersโincluding family back homeโbecomes part of the story.
We are incredibly grateful for Hanzโs visit, his professional insights, and the continued dedication shown by Ellen during her time with us.
Partnerships like these remind us that while our challenges may differ by region, our goal of providing dignity and care remains a universal language.
