near4rest team visited the “Helpless Children Home” situated in the southern area of Kirtipur, Kathmandu in Feb, 2024. We undertook a renovation project, repainting the facade of the orphanage and installing new kitchen equipment. “Helpless Children Home” is located at No. 6, Kirtipur Municipality, under the cultivating of Director Nar Bahadur Limbu and Secretary Bharat Dhakal, who oversee all internal and external affairs.

The majority of the original white walls at “Helpless Children Home” were deteriorating and peeling, and numerous lighting fixtures had lost their functionality. After thorough on-site assessments, the near4rest team crafted a tailored plan for exterior facade repair and lighting updates. Taking into account the children’s preferences, the approximately 600- square-meter facade was revitalized with a vibrant and refreshing fruit green hue, while 12 lighting fixtures in the walkways and children’s rooms were upgraded to ensure proper illumination.

At the orphanage, two nanny sisters oversee the daily lives of 32 children aged 5 to 18. Before the kitchen upgrade, they struggled with old equipment, spending up to four hours preparing meals. However, with new pressure cookers, woks, and stoves, efficiency greatly improved. The near4rest team enjoyed participating in the revamped meal preparations, resulting in quicker and more enjoyable dinners.

near4rest aims not only to provide financial support to children but also to instill in them with enthusiasm and love for their home, environment, and surroundings. We prioritize their sustainable growth and physical and mental well-being. Furthermore, we envision these children becoming ambassadors of Kathmandu, imbued with near4rest’s vision. Through their youthful and infectious energy, they spread goodwill beyond borders, injecting young power into the world.
WE AIM TO BE A CULTURAL SAFE HAVEN,
TO BRIDGE THE ONES IN NEED AND THE ONES WHO SHARES.
