Community Action Nepal
Community Action Nepal (CAN))))) is a UK based charity who's aim is to help the mountain people of Nepal. CAN have an office and staff on the ground in Nepal to make their projects happen. They work with mountain villages and communities, to provide health, education, income generation and cultural and porter welfare facilities.
CAN projects are grass routes driven, with the ideas coming directly from the supported communities. Since 1998, more than 50 community projects have been established. CAN currently operate 9 health posts, 8 schools and 3 mountain porter rescue shelters.
With the recent tragic deaths in the mountain porter communities, the need for this practical on the ground support has never been higher.
