Greensource Solutions is pleased to announce that it has a new charity partner.
New Futures Nepal is a UK registered charitable trust. It was established in 2002 by a group of like-minded people who, having spent time trekking in Nepal, wanted to give something back to the people of that country. Disabled and orphaned children live a harsh life in this desperately poor country (one of the top 10 poorest countries in the world).
Without regular financial support and assistance they are often reduced to begging on the streets, living rough and are prey to unscrupulous traffickers and drug barons.
The charity obtained UK registered charity status in July 2003. We are a non-governmental, non-political and non-religious organisation.
The charity is engaged in raising funds to provide assistance and relief and to support cases of need, hardship and distress for Nepali children and adults. We are the main providers of financial support to two homes for disabled and orphaned children and adults; one in Kathmandu, Nepal and one in Kalimpong, Northern India. In these homes we care for 32 resident children, 2 disabled adults and we provide salaries for 7 carers. Our funding also helps to cover medical care and treatments required as well as education for all the children living in the homes. We also support one-off projects providing shelter for street children and aid for community projects throughout the Himalayan region.
The charity’s total administrative costs are under 1% and all the trustees work voluntarily for the charity A trustee visits Nepal at least once a year to oversee our projects and confirm that funds are spent as intended.
New Futures Nepal is a registered charity: 1098661
We at Greensource Solutions look forward to working with New Futures Nepal and raising money for them through collecting empty printer cartridges, mobile phones and PDAs.
