Stichting Balsewa was founded in order to raise funds to expand Aamaghar Pathshala, a school for underprivileged children in the Nepalese village of Pumdi Bhumdi, near to the city of Pokhara. Nepal is an underdeveloped country, partly because of its very challenging topography, poor infrastructure and the resultant poverty. Parents cannot always support their children and are desperate for opportunities for a better life. Stichting Balsewa’s goal is to give Nepalese children a better life.
