Welcome to SACHHAM
NEPAL
SACHHAM - A BRIDGE TO ADULTE LIFE
The Sachham project enables young people without family and / or financial support to complete school and vocational training, which, depending on their talents will help them secure their own existence in the future.
A third of the population is under 14 years old. The great poverty in rural areas means that more and more children are growing up without fathers, who have to emigrate to ensure the livelihood of their families. In addition, many parents see themselves compelled in the situation of having to send their children to the city to find work. From the age of 5 the children have to work in the carpet industry, in brick factories, quarries, on construction sites, in agriculture, in households or hotels.
Forced labour, prostitution and child trafficking are on the agenda - a bitter reality that got worse after the devastating earthquake and the Covid 19 pandemic.
To alleviate this misery and to give a young, ambitious generation a perspective after school, we founded Sachham Nepal.
100% of your donations will benefit the work in Nepal.

Travel report Sachham Nepal Autumn 2024
Dear friends of Sachham Nepal
This autumn I spent five weeks in Nepal accompanied by Christoph Sigrist.
Shortly before our departure, we received, once again, terrible images from Nepal. Unusually heavy rainfall for the time of year in the Kathmandu Valley as far as Kavre caused the rivers to swell significantly. Parts of Kathmandu and southern parts of the country were affected by severe flooding. Well over 200 people lost their lives and all important road connections were cut off. Fortunately, our projects were not affected, only Laxmi Pratisthan's hostel in Kanda was damaged by water seeping in. Four accommodations there urgently need to be renovated. Fortunately, none of the 150 people on site were injured. This disaster also shows how difficult life is in Nepal, especially for the poor.
