Since 2010, Anuprastha Foundation has worked alongside communities — not for them — to create change that endures.
To empower marginalized communities across Nepal by providing access to quality education, healthcare, livelihood opportunities, and environmental stewardship — using music as the bridge that connects resources to those who need them most.
A Nepal where every person, regardless of geography or circumstance, has the tools, resources, and confidence to live a fulfilling and self-determined life — with music amplifying every step of the journey.
Our Values
We listen before we act. Every solution starts with the voices of those we serve.
Programs are designed to outlast our involvement, building local capacity and ownership.
Full public reporting on every program, partner, and rupee spent.
Measurable, real-world outcomes guide every decision we make.
We serve without discrimination — gender, caste, religion, or geography.
Interventions are informed by research and continuously evaluated.
