The Friends of Nepal -NJ and Rotary Districts 7510 and 3292 will be celebrating a special event in Nepal this coming September.

FONNJ has so far donated more than $150,000 worth of grants and services in collaboration with Rotary clubs and non-profit organizations in Nepal.
 
A Small contribution as low as $35 can send one kid to school in Nepal for a whole year, while $100 can help one lady to start a small business.   In the midst of poverty and disparity in Nepal, we see many committed people making a difference. We will be recognizing individuals for their Humanitarian services for making a difference in Nepal at this event.

Working together with our well-wishers and with strong support from many community organizations, we have made a significance difference by fostering new hope and opportunity for poor people in Nepal.
We hope to work with other like minded organizations to develop new projects and activities.  
If any organizations would like to collaborate with our existing projects, please let us know.    
Support projects in Nepal  and be a part of solution!!
