Siya Children’s Home and Activity Centre, Nepal

The team’s first endeavour towards the protection of fundamental child rights and social security for orphan and abandoned children is Siya Children’s Home, located in Janakpur, the capital city of the Madhesh Province in Nepal. We are a shelter home for orphans, underprivileged, and abandoned children, and women. They bring such children and women together to create a home and hope for both target groups. Every child deserves a quality and memorable childhood. Once they come to the shelter home, they are no more orphans, they become a family. They assure shelter, food, clothes, education, health, empowered voices, and a sustainable future for our children.

The organisation’s vision is not just to rescue children from abject poverty but to enable them to develop and realize their potential. Towards building a sustainable future, the team are doing the following activities.

•  Identifying orphans, abandoned children and children in the risk zone. Rescuing them from abject poverty and providing them shelter, cooked meals, warm clothes, quality education, health, and future dreams.
