Construction in Kathmandu program

April 23, 2025by: Edward S - United StatesProgram: Construction and Rebuilding in Kathmandu, Nepal

The construction was working on a community park. The local children worked with us on moving dirt with the wheelbarrows – very nice to see them care about their park and interest in us. The only downside in the project was that it was monsoon season which made outdoor work difficult. Local accommodations in Kathmandu were great! Very comfortable and afforded us an opportunity to interact with volunteers from around the globe. The local team was the best ever. Well managed, very professional and very helpful in all things for Nepal. Food was great, cleaning was great.

Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re so glad you enjoyed working on the community park and connecting with the local children. Despite the monsoon season challenges, it’s great to hear you found the accommodations, food, and our amazing team in Nepal so welcoming. We’d love to see you again on another project!
