Social Contribution

Social Work of Above the Himalaya Trekking is involving in the social welfare sector since our establishment. We are not only doing the trekking business, but we also believe in our responsibility towards our society. As employers’ actual social works are made for the benefit of their employees.

A part of our profit goes directly to a local community. We are helping them to make homestay trekking programs, introduce new trekking routes in the countryside. We focus on porter training, education, etc. Therefore, always give something back to the areas where we are working, and are supporting schools, orphanage houses, recycle projects and help disabled people.

We have open The Himalayan Library Sham Bhanjyang Higher Secondary School, which is situated in Maidi VDC, which is 19 km west of Dhading District headquarter and about 108 km west of Kathmandu. The Shami Bhanjyang School is the apex public educational institution among five VDCs, namely Maidi, Dhola, Khari, Nalang, and Salang, which is meant to be densely populated in the rural mid hill area.

Our social work Support for Nepal Earthquake Victims

Dear all of our family and friends around the globe, we would like to inform you that all of our staffs at Above the Himalaya Trekking (owner, office staffs, trekking guide, and porters)  and their family and relatives are safe & sound from the devastating earthquake of 7.8-magnitude occurred in Nepal on Saturday, April 25th.

According to local media reports, the number of buildings, and historical landmarks in different parts of Nepal has been completely level with massive damage.

We went to villages to see the situation and found the people now are safe but have more significant problems regarding shelter and food. We have provided some Tarpaulins, but still, there is a huge demand. Many people are sleeping on the floors without Tarpaulin and food. Due to the electricity cut out, even people who have foodstuff are unable to prepare it.

We have visited the village a second time and provided the 3000 kg of rice and other support; considering our responsibility, now we are working on making a few houses for the victims in need as a sustainable program. We are thankful that so many people are helping in the Kathmandu Valley.

However, we are focusing on more remote villages and mountains where there is much less support. We need to provide help for them with basic needs such as food, fuel, clean water, hygiene products, and, most importantly, shelter.

Our help to the poor people of a local village

We are helping with food and tarpaulin as emergency support; however, as said earlier, our primary goal is to provide more help for the victims and provide them some support for disaster recovery and relief efforts in response to the region of Nepal impacted by this earthquake.

Thank you to all of our friends, guest, and great people for your great help.
