Nepal Reliance Organization (NRO) welcomes Nepalese and international volunteers in the great valleys of the Himalayas in Nepal, to make their positive contribution in a developing country with a rich culture.

NRO is a not-for-profit and non-governmental organization created by Nepali women.  It has received a legal registration with the Social Welfare Council.  It has been designed to attract volunteers from Nepal and all over the world.  NRO give them an opportunity to make a difference of some degree in our villages and urban areas.

NRO provides volunteers with community support and cultural experience through carefully organized programs in villages and urban areas.  In addition, they can spare sometime for adventure and exploration.   Especially, volunteers from all over the world return back home with everlasting memories.
