5 Core Issues

Our research has revealed a number of causes that keep the people living in remote Himalayan villages in a cycle of suffering and poverty. We call these our 5 Core Issues.

24,000 children die before the age of 5 every year in Nepal

In Nepal, an estimated 229,000 people are in modern day slavery and 23,600 individuals are trafficked, missing or victims of an attempted trafficking each year

Education breaks the cycle of suffering and leads to lasting transformation

Work starts at age 5 and keeps children from attending school

Erosion together with antiquated farming techniques lead to a crop loss of 40%

Carry Hope and combat the core issues

MountainChild is a non-profit organization which carries out all of its work and projects through the donations of individuals and organizations who wish to become active participants in our efforts to carry hope to the children of the Himalayas.
