In the spring of 2015, Nepal's devastating earthquakes damaged Hamro Ghar, GoodWeave's center for rescued child laborers in Kathmandu. For many children removed from carpet factories, Hamro Ghar provides a safe place to call home - a place to learn, heal, and grow. While the center is safe for the moment, GoodWeave needs your help to build a new, safer Hamro Ghar to protect these children from future earthquakes and ensure long-term sustainability.

Since the earthquake in 2015 we have been supporting rural schools through a range of interventions. Initially we were rebuilding classrooms and providing taps and toilets. This expanded to include educational bursaries, teacher training, libraries and anti-trafficking workshops. It is a little known fact that children who attend school regularly are far less likely to be trafficked. Help us to stamp out the sale and exploitation of children in Nepal through our school improvement programme.

In 2015, two violent earthquakes struck Nepal affecting 5.4 million people. AHAH arrived 72 hours after the first, to see how we could help. After six+ months of rubble removal and constructing camps, clinics and homes, we began to focus on rebuilding resilient schools. This program, now entering its fifth year, is our holistic approach to helping as many overlooked rural communities as possible recover -- and recover stronger -- by rebuilding the schools at the center of community life.
