“Children of Sagarmatha” is a foster home for children created in October 2002 in Kathmandu (Nepal). This centre accommodates disadvantaged children who have had a difficult upbringing: fatherless or motherless, or children from the many families living in poverty.

“Sagarmatha” provides them with a stable life and family environment, as well as with a complete school education.

Today this centre welcomes nearly 50 children and young people. They arrive in general at around 5 or 6 years of age, and leave the centre at the school-living age. They are fed, housed, supervised and educated.

Children of Sagarmatha is under the supervision of the local NGO Sagarmatha Asahaya Sewa Sangh (SASS) which manages the centre on site.

Founded at the end of 2010, the Swiss Organisation Sagarmatha aims to collect donations in Switzerland in order to ensure the existence of this project.

The Swiss Organization Sagarmatha is a registered charity since 2013.
