"Volunteers for Development Nepal is a great organization. Intent upon helping the poor and underprivileged, they are very helpful to their volunteers, giving one-on-one Nepali lessons and making sure that all is well at the service site. They also make volunteers feel like they are part of the family, allowing them to live in their home and have daily meals together.
The organization sets everything up, and even arranges for visits around the city to the various sites and temples, and even to places outside of Kathmandu, such as for elephant safaris in Chitwan.
This is an excellent organization to choose for your volunteering stay in Nepal".
Thank you so much Basanta & Volunteers for Development Nepal for your hospitality and organization of such an enriching experience! I really enjoyed the opportunity to visit the schools and communities and learn about VFDN's programs. The cause of the organization is very admirable and I hope to continue learning about VFDN's work and be able to support the organization in the future. Today was a very memorable and educational experience and I am very grateful!
Ms. Tessa LeylandA special thanks to Basanta from Volunteers for Development Nepal for organizing our trip around Kathmandu. It was such a great experience meeting the students, teachers and community people of VFDN's programs and learning about various programs. VFDN is doing great work serving the many communities in Nepal. I hope for the success of this organization. I am grateful for this amazing opportunity! It was truly memorable!

I would like to give a huge thank you to Basanta & Volunteers for Development Nepal for arranging our whole project. The patience and kindness shown to us by Basanta and his family has been amazing. Thank you for being so welcoming and showing us round your beautiful city.
Ms. Jennifer LeggWords cannot express how grateful I am for all the kindness, generosity and support offered by Basanta and VFDN. Without your help, my MDR-TB Project (Multi drug resistant tuberculosis in Nepal: exploring the views of healthcare workers on factors for its proliferation) would not have been possible. I've had a lovely week experiencing the sites and culture in and around Kathmandu Valley. I wish VFDN every success with its future initiatives. You are doing fantastic work to support the communities who need it most. Dhanyabad!
