About Us
SOS Bahini in its current form has been established in January 2005. CHL is a Luxembourg based NGO that is working in Cooperation with the MAE (Ministry for Foreign Affairs Luxembourg.)
Other partner organizations are “BONO Direct-Aid” Germany, “Refuge Nepal” England, “A 77” Italy and “Mettalux” Luxembourg.
In 2005 the founders of SOS Bahini Nepal Radha Paudel & Raymond Lindinger joined hands with Francois Prum in a mutual vision to fight social injustice towards many of the most underprivileged girls and women in Nepal. We are reaching out to those that are most at risk with the goal to prevent worst forms of discrimination, exploitation and violence.
The SOS Bahini Board is composed by Nepalese women from all walks of life. Management and staff "THE TEAM" are mainly women and where ever possible we are employing women that are belonging to our target groups.
Our objective:
We consider ourselves as "Social Activists" and it is our mission to prevent worst forms of abuse, exploitation and violence of girls and women in Nepal.
To this end an all encompassing strategy has been developed comprising a number of interconnected and interdependent projects. (Please find diagram under management). All these projects have been established with the sole aim to support, protect and educate our beneficiaries and teach them the skills they need to live a life in safety, dignity and independence.
We are a small organization with a number of innovative, small scaled grassroots projects and personalized assistance. We encourage our beneficiaries to actively participate and thus we were able to weave into the social fabric of our community and establish projects that are accepted by our target groups and supported by the larger community. Our approach is pragmatic, down to earth and efficient!
All our partner organizations are transferring 100% of the donations entrusted to them and we in return can affirm that 100% of all donations are benefitting our beneficiaries only, and we have a record to prove this.
