All net proceeds from the handicraft sales are used to fund primary health care, medical and educational projects, giving to those involved in the production process a sense of pride that comes by helping and sustaining many others, in even greater need than themselves.
Sponsorship

There are only two high schools in northern Dhading. Most students stop after primary school owing to lack of financial support to attend high schools which are outside their village. Lack of education is an important barrier to economic progress. Each year we support dozens of children, including orphans and blacksmith children, in the local and Kathmandu private schools through the help of generous friends. Many of our sponsored students have graduated from high school. Many of the high school graduates get further support to attend technical schools and colleges. They receive training to become health providers, teachers and other skilled technicians, in many cases returning home to take over the running of village health posts, schools, and other services or trades in their villages. Sponsoring a student is a serious undertaking, requiring support from the donor over several years. HHC makes commitments to help students through graduation, and we cannot withdraw that commitment before a student has succeeded; we expect our donors to approach student sponsorship with a similar level of resolve. Indicative costs to sponsor a student are: $500 per year for a village primary student, $1500 per year for a Kathmandu boarding school, and $3000 per year for a technical school.
Hearts in the Himalayas
Support HHC's 'One Home One Toilet' Campaign in Remote Ruby Valley
Himalayan HealthCare continues to build permanent toilets in partnership with recipients in remote Ruby Valley Rural Municipality near the Ganesh Himal mountains where there were none. This has reduced the rate of diarrhea, dysentery, typhoid and many other fly-borne diseases thus preventing deaths of children, women and elders while also keeping the villages clean. We have built over 700 toilets serving over 3500 community members directly and tens of thousands indirectly. We need to help build 500 more. Every dollar counts.
