Greetings!

Together they will look back on Olga's accomplishments as the founder of the Nepal Youth Foundation (NYF), and the benefactor and champion of thousands of Nepali children over the last 28 years.

Olga Murray is an amazing woman.  As a 60-year-old trekking in Nepal in 1984, she was touched by the poor and ragged children, still bright-eyed and fun-loving.  After returning home Olga started investing in scholarships for Nepali students she had met.   

 

Today the Nepal Youth Foundation (NYF) runs children's homes, supports dozens of children in boarding schools, and offers 6-week residential courses to mothers and children at its nutritional rehabilitation centers - just to name a few of its services.

 

Som Paneru, a Nepali native and early NYF beneficiary, became President of NYF when Olga stepped down earlier this year.    

 

NYF is a recommended Global Grandmothers' charity.  Charity Navigator has given NYF a 4-star rating for six consecutive years.  

 

We hope you will join us for a stimulating and celebratory event!
