Brief explanation by a Tibetan monk about his volunteer day distributing food for Food for the Poor in Kathmandu.

Volunteers from Austria, Italy, Germany The Netherlands and India are distributing food to the poor people in Kathmandu. Approximately 4 million people live in its urban agglomeration and 900.000 people in Kathmandu. Voluntary work in Kathmandu opens your mind to different ways of life. The direct contact with desperate, poor and homeless people will teach you more than any textbook can. There is no question that your priorities will be realigned when you return home. When you involve yourself in volunteer work in poor countries everyone benefits.

The Food for the Poor team prepares fresh meals daily. “Sometimes they feel so sad when they meet poor families without the opportunity to buy clothes or shoes for their child. Tears and sadness are often part of our volunteer work. But every day they are motivated again to distribute food to the poor. ‘We work for the forgotten, poor and often homeless people in Nepal; they need dignity and food’.

Our Food for the Poor volunteers distributes not only food but also good vibrations, Healing, Peace, Harmony, Hope, Joy, Respect & Dignity. As a result …more happy people and less suffering for the poor people.

Extreme poverty, hunger, poor hygiene, and limited access to education are significant causes of high malnutrition rates.

Salaries for our Food for the Poor team members in Nepal is paid by a sponsor in Europe.
