Friends of Himalayan Children is a humanitarian organisation working to stop child trafficking and child slavery through providing access to education, a safe home for disadvantaged children and community development projects in rural Nepal. This Australian based charity aims to bring communities in our country together to go forward and help rural communities in Nepal, especially due to the horrific living conditions and devastating loss that too many villages endure/d due to the disastrous earthquake that hit in April 2015. Focusing on inspiring, empowering and connecting not only young women but schools, families and entire villages in need of support, guidance and education on topics such as child and women trafficking, hygiene and the importance of gaining a good education in order to be exposed to positive career opportunities and a wider understanding of the world around them. Our organisation works intimately with international volunteers and members of the FHC community in Cairns, Australia to ensure that 100% of funds raised goes directly into supporting the children of Batase Village and surrounding areas in dire need of assistance to meet their basic needs. Volunteers regularly visit the village to work at the school, assist with building projects, connect with their sponsor child and see exactly what the money raised in Australia is being used to achieve.

Our founder/President has an incredible personal story to share that has inspired members of our FHC community to join in on his journey to save the people of his community and to provide them with a greater quality of life - an opportunity each and every human regardless of their race, age, gender or of country of birth deserve.
