1) Where does my donation money go?
Your gifts go to support Friends of WPC Nepal, an independent organization based in the state of Washington, USA. Friends of WPC Nepal uses its funds to support programs that help victims of trafficking through programs that are operated by the Women’s Protection Center in Hetauda, Nepal.
2) How do you cover administrative costs and staff salary?
We try to keep our administrative and staff costs low. Our staff in the US work part-time and maintain the day to day operations required to fund our home in Nepal.
3) Are there plans to make the Women’s Protection Center in Nepal self-sustaining ?
Yes, Friends of WPC Nepal intents to help provide programs that over time will allow the Women’s Protection Center in Nepal to be self-sustaining. This is done through our vocational training programs.
In addition, Co-Founder, Lila Ghising has started a social business in the United States called Nari Boutique. The main goal of the business is to sustain the Women’s Protection Center in Nepal and invest its profit to create a community with hope for survivors of human trafficking in Nepal.
