Trekking through inner Nepal
VCD Nepal is a non-profitable, non-governmental organization solely funded and sustained by volunteers. We are endeavouring to find sponsorship to keep our over-heads down because we appreciate that volunteers make substantial economic sacrifices to come to Nepal. We do not have any significant sponsorship as of yet, but if any organizations or individual are interested in becoming our sponsor, they would be very welcome. This is applicable to the sponsorship of individual projects as well as the organisation as a whole.

We are aiming to raise money towards scholarships and sponsorship for the education of orphanage children.
