We can all make a real difference

IGWR is an Australian charity that helps vulnerable families in Nepal. We have a special focus on supporting single mothers and children who need support to attend school or a safe home. For twelve years we’ve been making a real difference by giving opportunities that enable these women and children to blossom and find a sustainable future for the whole family.

IGWR is a family of families
"When we give a child an opportunity to go to school and then on to college, we create a future for the child and renew hope for the family and local community. It is more than charitable work, it is an investment in a better future for all."
Peter Humphris, Chairperson, IGWR Inc.
With the support of many from around the world, we are achieving so much....

Single mums are amazing, they sacrifice a lot and work harder than most of us can imagine. However, with our support they can give their kids the opportunity they themselves never had.
Most of our students live at home with mum (usually a one room home), and we ensure the kids can go to school and that mum is supported. In some cases we find new employment for the mum so she can also spend more time with kids rather than seeking to make ends meet.


Some children do not have a safe home to live in. We have three houses in Kathmandu that provide a family style hostel with resident house-mothers to look after these children during the school terms.
Wherever possible we then arrange for holiday visits to family members even though this may involve travel to remote parts of Nepal.
Setting up a foster home so that a mum with a special needs child could also look after another special needs girl instead of going out labouring all day has proved a delightful model, and has created a beautiful caring family home.
We will extend this model as soon as we have more financial resources as it works so well and is inspiring for us as we what a difference it makes for all involved.

We're currently supporting nearly sixty students in full time education, from primary school through to university.
And we make a difference..
We have graduates that are now working in healthcare (including one doctor and three nurses), banking, hospitality and even running their own small business.
