Global Volunteers has many partners in Nepal including various schools in Kathmandu – primary, secondary and colleges – that have requested Global Volunteers’ support to help children learn and improve their English skills.  Volunteers also teach at Soroptomist Kathmandu, a women’s organization which strives to work for women’s empowerment and ASTHA Women’s School, an academy for adult women who could not complete their school education when they were young.  Finally, Global Volunteers partners with Papa’s House, a home for orphaned children in Kathmandu, to work on labor projects to improve the facility.
