Who We Are
Hope Foundation (HF) is a non-governmental, non-political, and non-profit organization officially registered in 2011 with the District Administrative Office of Kathmandu, Nepal, and affiliated with the Social Welfare Council (SWC) of the Government of Nepal (GoN).
We are dedicated to creating a non-discriminatory, community-based, and supportive environment that helps individuals bring positive and lasting changes in their lives. Our work focuses on drug use and harm reduction, HIV/AIDS awareness and prevention, anti-human trafficking initiatives, and community development.
Our organization is driven by a committed team of professionals and volunteers — many of whom have personal experience with drug use or are living with HIV/AIDS. Their lived experience and compassion form the foundation of our approach to recovery, empowerment, and social change.
"To develop the society is to develop the country; to develop the country is to develop the world."
