Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document TAR Marth 2012
Child Action Nepal was set up in 2003 after one of its trustees established an orphanage (LBU) in Kathmandu in 2002. Our first home had 10 boys and 10 girls and reached its 11 capacity. Therefore, we opened a second home in 2C(J9 to welcome 20 more children who have lost their parents and were at risk of becoming seNants. prostitutes or street children. Managing two houses became very drfficult as it is hard to find good staff and we thought we could not spend as much time vh each child individually, which what makes CAN'S approath so special. Therefore, as some of our Ghildren leave LBU after securing a job and a lodging, we are back to having one house and 20 children again. That way we can realty create a family atrnr)sphere and make the children feel like any other children. In detemiining our programme each year, we have regard to both the Charity Commission's general guidartce on public benefit and the prevention and relief of poverty for the public benefit. The trustees always ensure that the programmes we urKlertake are in line with our charitable otlects and aims. Chikl Action Nepal. through one of rts trustees, establishes orphanages in Nepal and. to ensure that each orphan receNes the maximum care and attention. we limit our homes to a maximum of 20 children. Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (Include within this section the statutory declaratton that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefft) The activities currenly carried out for the public nefft by the charity indude: Education: the Children go to one of the best schools in Kathmandu. On they have reached the equivalent of GCSE level, the Chanty keeps on supporting the children through vocational trainirvJ. Goltege or universty, depending on their abilty. Healthcare: the children and local staffs healthcare costs are entirely Govered by the Chartty. In addition to oTrgoing treatment for some of the children, we or9anise visits to the dentist and the ophthalmologist at least On a year for everybody. We also have the children and staff vaccinated Cultural: We regularfy organise visits to exhibittons as well as trips so that the children have a good knowledge of their country. In addrtion, the children are brought up according to Nepalese customs and lebrating the main festivals. Thal way we prepare them to become well-integrated cttEens of Nepal. We select the thildren who need the most help. i.e. the ones who have the poorest background, have lost one or both of their parents and are the most at risk of ending up as street children, serlants or prostitutes because their extended family cannot support them. We employ lool staff syrvised by a local commtttee, which ensures that we pay °local prices" for all our expenses. In addition to school edulxtion, we educate the thiklren to be self-sufficient and, during their vacations, to take care of their dothes and shoes, and help wrth the ¢ookirKJ and deaniThJ of the house. Our twstees are unpaid arKI personally finan s)me of the charity's ongoing expenses so that CAN has only minimal expenditure in the UK and all donations are used diredly for the benefft of the Children.

reLgted investment; contribution made by volunteers. Section D Achievements and performance 2020-21 has been again a drfficult year for our chiklren as they had to continue studying from home. One of our trustees bought three laptops but it was far from enough and we will keep on asktng our donors to give us their old laptops when they want to upgrade. One of the eldest children moved to London to study for a Masterfs degree in Intemational Business. This has been possible thanks to a couple of sp)nsors and has involved minimum cost for the charity. Next year we plan to have another child coming to London to study for a Masters and we are going to initiate a special fundraising for her. Two other children plan to go atKoad to study or work but their plan is not yet fixed. However, it is atso likely that we will welcorne new children next year so that we will continue to have 20 thiklren in total in LBU. Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year In sprte of a very long confinement, the thiklren are in good physical and moral health. They continued to exeruse and eat well. Our manager. Rolak, managed to have the older children and staff vaccinated fully against Covid-19 and our youngest children have also r1Ved their first vaccination. We also have been able to organise two serious operations: one for Bikash who had problems breathing and needed a nose operation and one for Parkash who had pierced eardrums due to untreated infections before joining LBU. They have both recovered nic£ty arKt are back to sthool and Universty. In April, we organÉsed a rafting weekend for the Children. They had not been able to teave the house for a year and it was importarrt for their morale and wellbeing for them to enjoy nature away from the pollution of Kathmandu. sin the end of November 2021. the children are back to attending classes, so we have stsrted looking for additional staff lo take ore of the house and laundry. In the UK, it has been difficutt to organised big fundraising, but our supporters have managed to raise a lot of fvnds through sporting events: the London Marathon, the London 10K and a 150kn) bike ride in less than 6 hours. We also have teen muth more adtve using social media and that has helped not only raising funds, but also in keeping our supporters informed aboui CAN.
