Kopila Valley Sewa Samaj (KVSS)

“A world where every child is safe, educated, loved”

Kopila Valley Sewa Samaj (KVSS) established in 2007, is a non-governmental, apolitical, and not for profit organization. Our mission is to change the world by empowering Nepal's children. We do this by providing quality education, a safe environment, and through inspiring others while putting the children first, strengthening families and our communities. Most at-risk and disadvantaged children are provided with inclusive quality education at Kopila Valley School (KVS), one of the greenest schools in Nepal, made from the earth and nestled on a campus with a commitment to building sustainable programs. Along with lifelong gift education to the disadvantaged children, we support their family members to improve their living standards and make it sustainable through holistic programs ranging from children’s home, health and wellness through women empowerment to career guidance/counseling, and scholarships for further studies. Through community outreach programs like empowerment sessions, community information center and organic farming practices, we are extending our reach. Environmental sustainability is one of the guiding principles and a way of life whatever we do!

Health & wellness is one of the important programs of KVSS that provides health services and emergency response to our students and local community. It spreads promotional, preventive and basic curative healthcare services to students of KVS, staff and guardians along with some community outreach programs. Main components of the health & wellness program include clinic, nutrition support through local and organic foods, mental health and counseling support and family development program.

Family Development Program (FDP) is for social wellbeing to create a positive support circle, and strengthen families to be able to resolve their issues by themselves and the individuals in the family can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

We do this with our funding partner BlinkNow Foundation and in close ties with the local government and communities.
