Welcome to Sambhav Nepal !

Sambhav Nepal is a registered non-profit, non-political, social organization aiming to establish and implement sustainable education, health, and community development programs in isolated areas of Nepal. Presently, the organization is working in ten remote villages of the Gorkha district.

In the rural regions, it is difficult to find quality schools due to a lack of funding and development programs. Of the few existing ones, the poor are often unable to afford the high cost and are left out from receiving decent education. Besides education, our deep sense of commitment lies in improving the community health status, while seeking to alleviate the deficiency of Nepali people by providing high quality, accessible, preventive as well as curative health services. We believe all people, regardless of age, sex or profession, have the potential to succeed and we are committed to providing support and opportunities to those in need.

Whether sponsoring a child, funding a project or volunteering in the village - opportunities to lend a helping hand are endless. Your support reaches the most remote corners of the Himalayas and goes directly towards the projects for construction, renovation as well as refurbishment of the schools and the health posts in Gorkha. Join us and become a part of the Sambhav Nepal family. We are always eager to serve the society together!

Current Projects

Balodaya Primary School

Established in 1981 AD by the locals of Satdobate, Balodaya has always struggled to maintain a high standard of education. Through the aid provided by generous donors, Sambhav Nepal has sought to address these problems so as to make Balodaya Primary School a respectable institution in Gorkha in the long run.

Bhairabi Primary School

Established some 16 years ago by the locals, Bhairabi Primary School had only one building where the classes were run. With the help of our dedicated donors, four new buildings (including advanced toilet facilities) have been constructed, and Bhairabi has now been converted to an English-medium school, the only such in the region.

Dharapani Community Library

The Dharapani Community Library was established in May, 2010, in Dharapani School through aid provided by a group of Australian nationals. The library has come into operation with trained staff and about 3,000 books. The Dharapani Community Library extensively serves to benefit the students and the locals who cannot afford proper books.
