A Contribution That Lasts
Volunteering at NNSC is an opportunity to become part of the children's everyday environment and contribute time, skills, knowledge, and ideas to their learning and activities. Volunteers may support educational activities, creative projects, sports, enrichment programs, or other areas where their experience and interests can be useful.
For the children, interaction with volunteers can bring new perspectives, learning experiences, and opportunities to explore interests beyond their regular routines. Different skills, experiences, and approaches can add variety to the activities and resources available to them.
For volunteers, time at NNSC offers an opportunity to understand the organization, the children's home, and the surrounding community through everyday experience. Living and working alongside the NNSC team and children can provide a more direct understanding of life in Nepal, while creating opportunities to share knowledge, learn from others, and develop meaningful connections.
Volunteer involvement can range from a short visit of a few weeks to a longer stay of several months. The role and activities can vary depending on the volunteer's skills, interests, experience, and the current needs of NNSC.

тАЬVolunteering at NNSC was a truly remarkable experience and one that has left a lasting impression. Be it taking the children to Bhaktapur to let them choose new clothes for the festival of Dashain or accompanying them to Chakhun - Ti Temple to weed, sweep and collect litter. The ethos of the center is to look for ways to help each child reach their full potential, ensuring they get a good education as well as offering broader experiences. What a joy to watch them playing football, flying kites, singing and dancing! Kamal has created a wonderful community in which the children can thrive.тАЭ

тАЬI especially enjoyed getting the opportunity to spend some time with children outside of lessons. The experience of sharing meals, talking with them, dancing, and getting to know their culture- all this established a connection that I never anticipated creating. Before going to Nepal, I thought I was going there to teach, but in return, I learnt just as much. I really loved how curious these children were with their insightful questions.тАЭ

тАЬI worked with NNSC nearly 7 years ago. NNSC gave me a great opportunity to work with the children while also exploring Kathmandu. One can help with tutoring, with playing, with arts and crafts. It's a great atmosphere; it's a great vibe and I had one of the best experiences doing it. тАЭ
