are possible, in rural Nepal.
Equality in health, education, and livelihood for rural Nepal.
Oda Foundation responds to immediate needs - emergency services and perinatal care - while facing deeply embedded barriers that make basic opportunities seemingly impossible to achieve. We listen to communities, and we work together.
Saving, and changing, lives for over 15 years in rural Nepal.
Kalikot, Nepal is isolated, hours of walking to any road. There is severe caste and gender discrimination. Local leaders believe their community deserves every chance to live, and to thrive. Community members have donated precious land and resources for Oda Foundation.
In a day at Oda Foundation
…a woman has a safe, warm place to give birth.
…an infection does not become an amputation.
…a menstruating girl has a safe bathroom at school.
…women go to work, and have their own bank accounts, and own their houses, for the very first time in this village.
….women make jobs for other women building on skills they already know, pulling from a women-led microloan fund.
Where simple healthcare was once not possible or affordable, schools and teachers were neglected, and women could not have their own bank account, this community builds a future.
