About Us
In the beginning more than 50 young people in the Pachnali village of Doti started a campaign to abolish alcoholism and to clean up the village. This was led by Sher Bahadur Malla, the current chairperson of the Organisation. Initially they faced a lack of support and cooperation from their own relatives and villagers. After learning many lessons, they decided to support the local farmers with the maintenance of a small irrigation canal. They registered their organisation at the District Administration Office (DAO) as a Non-Profit Making, Non-Governmental Development Organisation.
