Help Us Fully Fund Our First Contact Center Through Sponsorship!

Currently, we rely on fundraising events and donations to fund our Contact Center Program operating expenses. Our goal is for the Contact Centers to be fully funded by sponsorships.

In November 2025, we realized we were only 24 sponsors away from a fully sponsored Contact Center.

Now, just 14 more monthly sponsors at $50/month are needed to fully fund our first Contact Center for the year.

Sponsorship is flexible, starting at just $25/month, but $50/month helps us close the final gap and keep the Contact Center thriving all year long. Sponsors receive updates, photos, and cards from the children—and are always welcome to join us on our fall trip to Nepal to see the impact firsthand.

Our wish list for this holiday season consists of only two items. Although it is a short list, these items are vitally important to the health of our children and the success of our programs in 2026.

Thank you to everyone who participated in this year’s Holiday Bazaar. Without our many volunteers and loyal shoppers, the event would never be a success.

A Special and Magical Day
A Special and Magical Day

Every year, after the Sponsor Trip to Nepal, we post about the Mitrata and BSF Graduation Ceremony. We share how special the day is, and try to convey the magic in a way that those who were not in attendance can understand. This year, we had ten graduates to celebrate!

Building Connections at the Contact Center

This year’s Nepal Sponsor Trip attendees spent an afternoon at the Swayambhunath Contact Center. While there, they were able to spend time in each of the classes, meet the teachers and the children, and were treated to a few special dances performed by the students. This holiday season, we invite you to join in our mission of educating and empowering severely underprivileged children in Nepal by becoming a Contact Center Program sponsor.

Learning About the Daily Lives of our Students

While in Nepal, our Sponsor Trip participants have the opportunity to visit some of the schools our children attend. On this trip, they were able to visit Virinchi College and Reliance Residential School. They also visited Apex Girl’s Hostel, where a few of our older students live while they attend University.

In most of the communications about our annual Holiday Bazaar, you will find a statement that says something along the lines of “These items were hand-picked for you from fair-trade artisans in Nepal.” But what exactly does that mean?
