Disaster Relief Volunteering in Nepal

Join us in Nepal to contribute to construction and rebuilding projects near Kathmandu! Volunteers on this program work on long-term projects that usually take one year to complete, so volunteers are always needed here. In 2017, volunteers built a dog shelter that has housed over 300 stray dogs. In the past four years, three schools and one center for children with disabilities were built by volunteers. Join this program and see which community building and restructuring project you can help out with!

All Hands and Hearts provides community-inspired, volunteer-powered disaster relief. With the frequency and intensity of disasters on the rise around the globe, there's an urgent need for a more thoughtful approach to how we respond and help impacted communities recover. When a disaster strikes, All Hands and Hearts arrives early and stays late to address the immediate and long-term needs of vulnerable communities. We work alongside the local leaders and deploy our unique volunteer model to enable direct impact — helping families and communities recover by building safe, resilient schools, homes, and other community infrastructure. Thanks to passionate volunteers, donors, and partners, we've provided nearly 20 years of disaster relief support to over 1.3 million people.
