Our goal

To support the upbringing of vulnerable and at-risk children in Nepal, by providing for their daily living needs and meeting their right to education.

Megs Children Nepal - Albury Charity

Our charity was established in 2005 by Albury local Trish Ryan, in memory of her daughter Meg.

Trish had volunteered in an existing orphanage in Nepal and discovered its corrupt administration, poor facilities and persistent health problems.

Upon returning home Trish focused her efforts on rescuing the children from the exploitation and deprivation that they were facing. This then led to the creation of Meg’s Children Nepal.

Since then, Meg’s Children has grown and progressed to provide care and support to Nepalese children to help them grow, learn and achieve their ambitions.

We have three programs that support the children in our care: accommodation in Noble House; support through the Outreach Program; and Tertiary Education loans.

All the children who live in Noble House attend the local Global Life School, which ensures that they receive quality primary and secondary education.

Megs Children Nepal - Albury Wodonga Childrens Charity

The Outreach Program provides financial support to disadvantaged children living with their families to help cover education costs.

Financial loans towards Tertiary Education help our older children to develop their careers through university or post-school studies.

Special note

2020 has seen a challenging start to the year for many people. As a result of current circumstances, Meg’s Children has had to cancel some upcoming fundraising events. We are, however, calling on your continued support to help us provide for our children in Nepal, by becoming a regular donor and hence being recognised under our Sponsorship Recognition Levels.

We recognise the weight of this appeal at this difficult time, but hope that our local community can join together as donors to show those in the Meg’s Children family in Nepal that we are still here for them.

You can read more about the Sponsorship Recognition Levels here.
