    Our Sansar is a charity registered in the UK with the mission of providing education, shelter and welfare to the most disadvantaged children in Nepal for whom little or no help is forthcoming. We only work in areas where there is a huge need but no other organisations doing the same type of work as us.

  4. Financing

    Approximately 80% of our funding comes from foundations in the UK, Europe (mainly Switzerland, Germany, Lichtenstein), the US (International Monetary Fund). Apart from that we raise money from the public through online campaigns, events and receive regular donations from our supporters. We are also being supported by a Rotary Club and a few companies.
