The Kathmandu Kids Club Christmas Market took place on Friday November 27th at the BAA Gym. Detail on new members and monies raised will be confirmed shortly. In the meantime enjoy some of the photos from a very successful evening.
All Membership funds and donations will go towards projects in Nepal – the funds will not be used on expenses at Head Office in Bermuda or any other jurisdiction in which The ISIS Foundation operates, other than Nepal. Funds will be dedicated to specific projects and activities in Nepal including:– any funds paid to a Nepali partner organisation; any funds used in the operation of the children
The greatest benefit of becoming a member is the knowledge that you will have joined hands with a group of like-minded people with a common goal – to help save lives of children and to make genuine progress in the endeavour to stamp out dire poverty, from the grass roots level up. It is no cliche to say that we are making a significant difference to children in serious need.

Our Objectives are to provide funding for the living expenses – health, housing, food and schooling - of children living in Kathmandu, who have fled from the violence of the civil war in the mountains of Nepal. We also aim to provide funding for other ISIS Foundation projects in Nepal, all of which benefit Nepali children in dire need.
The key purpose of our club is to support The ISIS Foundation and The
ISIS Foundation (UK) in their work helping Nepalese children in serious
need, as laid out in our Mission Statement. By joining our club, members
make a direct and positive contribution to ease the plight of children
in a country ravaged by poverty and overcoming the effects of a very
recent civil war.
Thousands of Himalayan children have been forced by civil war from the safety of their parents’ homes. Many of these children arrive at the capital, Kathmandu, in an appalling and desperate state, suffering from malnutrition, disease and shock. Other children, unable to leave the mountains due to poverty or lack of resources, are at serious risk of dying from easily preventable diseases. We have heard many stories, direct from Nepalese children, which are too awful for most people to fully absorb.
The Kathmandu Kids Club takes pride in eliminating local administrative costs, often a burden to other charities. In the true spirit of charity our club is run by a fabulous team of professional Volunteer Managers and people working as support staff and on various sub-committees, who have kindly donated their time. This means that 100% of the funds we receive through our membership fees and donations arrive in Kathmandu undiluted, offering maximum positive impact on the children and the people caring for them. read more ...
