our story

Established in 2004, Drokpo Nepal is a non-profit organization founded by a group of passionate visionaries committed to creating positive change within the Himalayan and Tibetan communities in Nepal. The name "Drokpo," meaning "friend" in Tibetan, embodies our values of compassion and unwavering support for all individuals, regardless of their circumstan                                                                                                     
Our logo visually encapsulates these values, featuring the Tibetan endless knot symbolizing unity and eternity. The figures holding hands illustrate the enduring nature of friendship, underscoring the importance of human connection and solidarity in our mission to uplift and support others.
                                                                                                                  Drokpo’s primary objective is to strengthen the resilience of Tibetan and Himalayan people living in Nepal. As a grassroots organization, we actively engage in numerous initiatives aimed at enhancing the livelihoods and economic foundations of Tibetan and Himalayan individuals. Our dedicated efforts focus on critical areas such as improving economic prospects, promoting women’s reproductive health, and supporting mental well-being within the Himalayan community, utilizing culturally sensitive approaches delivered in their native language.
                                                                                                                      Today, we continue to be a steadfast advocate for the our people, striving to foster cross-cultural understanding and economic empowerment. Together, we have the power to effect positive change and cultivate a sustainable future.                                                                                                                                                                     
Our journey, however, is far from over. There is still much work to be done, and we invite you to join us in making a meaningful difference. As His Holiness, The Dalai Lama, wisely remarked, "If you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping in a room with a mosquito."

Drokpo Nepal operates as a registered non-profit organization headquartered in Kathmandu, Nepal. Our initiatives rely on the generous support of individual donors and grants, with 99% of funds directly allocated to our community programs. Join us in our mission to create a lasting impact and empower those in need.
