About the Community Learning Center

VIN has been working in Taluwa, Thulachhap, and Bhadaure of Okhaldhunga District since 2012, serving over 15,000 population. These remote villages lack basic infrastructure. We, therefore, have been supporting these rural villages using a holistic approach to community empowerment – Water Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) by education and construction of over 1800 toilets, 28 Early Childhood Education (ECD), Schools, Community Learning centers, women’s empowerment, youth empowerment, sustainable food production through permaculture and rainwater harvesting, children’s clubs, disaster risk reduction.

The last floor is yet to be completed and will cost about €105000. Any amount you donate will directly go to fund this project. Anyone (organization, company, individual) who donates over €500 will be mentioned on the Plaque of the CLC and in different media. Your donation will be mentioned in our newsletters and reports, too.

Volunteering with VIN was an incredibly experience! I spent an amazing 2 weeks working in 4 schools teaching about disasters and preparedness while enhancing the childrens english. Everyone I met was so lovely and helpful enciting me into their culture. While in Okhaldhunga I got to see multiple festivals including Gai Jatra and Teej, which was unforgettable and really made my time in Nepal. I'm so glad VIN allowed me to see the beautiful sights and culture if Nepal and I wish to come back soon!
