Swogun Nepal was registered in 1999 as a non-governmental social organization though the joint efforts of young and energetic people from the office of the District Administration of Kathmandu as well as from the Social Welfare Council. Swogun's main objective is to solve the growing problem of Nepal by empowering youth, women, local clubs, schools, village development committees and co-operatives with skills and ways to enhance their social development. We also work with other NGOs and INGOs, who assist us in this huge project.

At present, Swogun has 7 founder members, 22 executive members, 52 members, and national and international advisers.
Nepal itself is a beautiful country, but in global terms, it is still severely impoverished. With limited basic needs and its fragmented social infrastructure, it is still one of the most underdeveloped countries in the world, where many Nepalese are still deprived of electricity, health education, environmental awareness, clean drinking water and education. Moreover, most people are still untrained and unskilled on any practical level.

Although it's an uphill struggle we at Swogun Nepal are dedicated to achieving positive results, which can begin to bring Nepal up to a social standard that will encourage self-worth amongst its citizens. By providing basic needs and education, this is the key to our success.

OUR MISSION IS:

• To make solar light and modified smokeless stoves available in rural areas.
  
• To create awareness about environmental issues and sanitation.
  
• To make the public aware about health matters and to provide health education.
  
• To provide English language teaching in rural schools.
  
• To provide logistical support to run sewing, cutting and netting trainings.
  
• To establish a central charity hospital for the deprived people of Kavre, Sindhuli and Ramechhap Districts.
  
• To create income generating programs for women.
  
• To produce Nature photo Journalist [International students only]

Nepal is a very underdeveloped country, and the majority of Nepalese people, particularly in rural areas, are deprived of electricity, medical services, education and a clean environment.
Precious forests are being destroyed day by day, because people have no options but to use wood from trees for fuel and light. Of course, this is bad news for our country and the environment since it increases pollution and in turn, people suffer due to poor health.
In the 21st century, it may seem unbelievable to the western world that places such as Nepal don't have basic utilities like electricity, health posts and proper schooling etc. But ironically, one positive aspect of this delay towards modern-day conveniences means that Nepal now has the reason and opportunity to move forward using new, cleaner technology. Through Swogun Nepal, renewable energy, along with their other projects such as medical and educational services, means that targets can and must be reached for the sake of the country's future stability.

Your donation will help these targets become a long-term reality.
