Community work at child protection homes in Nepal

Children's homes were established in Kathmandu with the aim of providing a home and
some education to children whose parents are currently in prison or for those at
risk from their families. There is currently no social support system for children
if their parents are sent to prison so they either have to go with them or end up on
the streets. Therefore volunteers have a vital part in contributing to the care and
daily lives of these children. For more information on this volunteer vacation
