Construction and community development project in Nepal

Banepa is a beautiful town surrounded by the green hills and panoramic views of the Himalayan range and just an hour bus ride away from Kathmandu.

In this project, we are helping the forest community and the Senagal village of Kavre district nearby Banepa. After the earthquake, a lot of buildings were destroyed, and the local population needs help in rebuilding the village. We'll be assisting in developing effective agricultural methods; we will do environmental awareness and forest conservation work; we'll work together with local people to build a multi-purpose community house that can be used for various activities or for shelter in case of emergency.

Volunteers will have different construction, renovation and educational tasks:

• Construction of senior homes and organizing daily activities such as creating a garden, to support the aging community members.
• Help women prepare for the job market
• Creating a fire line (fire break) surrounding the community forest

Project dates: March 1 - March 14, 2026

Arrival and orientation: Volunteers are requested to arrive in Kathmandu one day before the project starts. Details about the local host, the project and the travel arrangements will be provided. All volunteers will travel together from Kathmandu to Banepa. Banepa is one hour away by bus. Banepa is one hour away by bus.
