“A world where every child is safe, educated, loved” - KVSS Kopila Valley Sewa Samaj (KVSS) is a non-profit NGO registered in Surkhet, Nepal to provide support for children and families in our community. Our mission is to change the world by empowering Nepal’s children. KVSS programs include a residential children’s home, Kopila Valley School (KVS) for inclusive quality education, women’s empowerment, sustainability, health and wellness, and a family development program. We provide our students a free education, educational materials, health treatment and medicine, counseling, and a place to live. With our innovative future program, we strive to provide our children with career guidance, and scholarships for further studies. Our children’s home provides a safe, loving, and stable home for children in extreme cases of need when all other options have been exhausted.
Environmental sustainability is one of the guiding principles and a way of life whatever we do! We nurture children and adults to appreciate, preserve and restore our environment so future generations may continue to flourish. Through the sustainability program, we promote Education for Sustainability through place-based, outdoor and experiential sessions, and an integrated curriculum. We work on regenerative farming and creating sustainable food systems by localizing the process along with promoting sustainable physical infrastructure, facilities and operation systems. Community outreach, partnerships and collaborations are the integral part of our work as we inspire others by offering KVS as an open learning source where green school networks, exposure visits, community groups and club activities are supported and encouraged. We do this with our funding partner BlinkNow Foundation and in close ties with the local government and communities.
