The Oda Foundation
Critical support for rural Nepal
Equal futures for women + girls
Enough food and water
24/7 healthcare
Good schools
are possible in rural Nepal.
Co-founded by a native of the village where we are based, we build local leadership and support health and education in remote Western Nepal.
In a day at Oda Foundation…
A woman has a safe, warm place to give birth.
An infection does not become an amputation.
A menstruating girl has a safe bathroom at school.
Women go to work, and have their own bank accounts, and own their houses, for the very first time in this village.
Nepal’s Kalikot District is a remote patchwork of villages connected by walking paths.
Difficult topography, impacts of Nepal’s civil war, and meager economic opportunity make it one of the most impoverished and forgotten regions in all of Nepal.
Against many barriers, we carry in all our supplies, train local staff, and keep power in the hands of the community.
Where simple healthcare was once not possible or affordable, schools were neglected, and women could not have their own bank account, this community builds a future.
