Mountainchild Inc

MountainChild exists for the purpose of raising awareness, resources and financial aid for humanitarian work carried out amongst impoverished children living in the Himalayas.  Our origins began in 2000 when short-term exploratory teams traveled to the region to investigate reports of severe medical, social, educational, and environmental challenges facing children living in the Himalayas. Children from these areas are counted fortunate if they live to see their early adolescence. MountainChild is urgently working to improve the lives of these children by bringing food, medical aid, education and love to children who have little chance of survival amongst such hostile conditions. MountainChild takes careful steps to ensure that the cultural integrity and rich history of these precious children remains intact.

OUR VISION - MountainChild exists to CARRY HOPE to the children of the Himalayas.  MountainChild is taking direct action to confront the alarming death rate statistics of these children. MountainChild is taking action to rescue, raise and return these children to their respective villages, so they may bring tangible and lasting hope to their people.

 

THE MISSION - At MountainChild, we are hyper-fanatical about stopping the cycle of suffering. Our passionate mission is all about enabling the mountain child to become a carrier of hope to their people.  Five (5) core issues have been identified in MountainChild’s pursuit to meet our stated objectives and to carry hope to the children of the Himalayas.  The five core issues are:

• HEALTH | Striving to equip, empower and provide clean water, sanitation, and medicine
• TRAFFICKING | Combating the human trafficking industry plaguing the Himalayas
• ENVIRONMENT | Environmental issues that affect health and growth
• EDUCATION | Providing educational opportunities as so few exist
• CHILD LABOR | Combating rampant child labor issues
