Schools in the Himalayas — Crowdfunding on wemakeit

I am collecting donations for two remote schools in Nepal. The funds go 1:1 towards school and sports equipment and are personally delivered on site.

CHF 6’835

124% of CHF 5’500

124 %

This is how it works

The «all or nothing» principle applies: The project only receives the funds if the funding target is reached or exceeded.

Ein guter Grund, ein bisschen stolz zu sein und es allen zu erzählen: Verfasse ein Update oder einen Post!

Insight & Updates from Nepal
As a thank you for your support, you will receive regular updates directly from Nepal.

On site, I document how and for what purpose the donated funds are used: the purchase of school and sports equipment, the handover to the schools in Yalung and Shivalaya, and insights into everyday school life.

The updates are shared in the form of short videos, photos, and texts and are intended to ensure full transparency.

All donations go 1:1 towards school and sports equipment. Travel, accommodation, and production costs are fully covered by myself.
