Serving Communities with Local Leadership
100% for Nepal
KarmaFlights is a Nepal-based non-profit organization. We strongly believe in each child’s immutable right to a safe and secure learning environment. In a land famous for its towering peaks and tumultuous rivers, the bright young minds of Nepal are its greatest natural resource. Education is the key to unlocking that vast potential and solving the issue of poverty in Nepal.

Project Ideas?
“I witnessed firsthand how Karmaflights, a local NGO had the flexibility, foresight and drive to be one of the first on the ground at the epicentre providing much needed support with efficiency and most importantly, humanity. As the situation developed and needs changed, so did Karma Flights, adapting to the requirements of the most vulnerable. Almost uniquely Karmaflights extended their coverage to high, remote and inaccessible locations in the mountains where others could not. Highly adaptable and dedicated staff pioneer delivery solutions to the most vulnerable.”
Sponsor a Child
Kinship Scholarship Program
Hundreds of children lost one or both parents in the 2015 Nepal earthquakes. These children, known as “earthquake orphans”, face significant obstacles in their daily lives. The pain of loss of family is often compounded by the need to leave school to support their own survival. KarmaFlights has developed a unique program to break this damaging cycle and protect these vulnerable children.

New School Education
The April 2015 earthquake destroyed 90% of the schools in the epicentre region of Gorkha district. This amounts to over 500 schools that urgently need to be rebuilt. Our immediate mission is to help communities by building 20 permanent earthquake-resistant schools. We also wish to provide new and exciting tools to engage the children in the educational process.

Earthquake Response
Immediately in the aftermath of the devastating earthquakes of April and May 2015, KarmaFlights leapt into action. Within 48 hours of the 7.8 richter scale quake, which took the lives of some 9,000 individuals and destroyed over half-a-million homes and schools, our team was on the move to the epicenter. We quickly established a medical triage, care center and urgent-supply distribution hub, serving the immediate needs of the shocked and destroyed communities. KarmaFlights were the first responders to the epicenter area, and remained the only group active on the ground for weeks following the quake and several aftershocks.
