Description: Social Development and Voluntary Service Nepal (SDVS NEPAL) is founded by dedicated, experienced young local Nepali people who worked in different NGOs, INGO's and GO's with the objective of social upliftment, economically deprived and downtrodden segment of the society. We are certified by His Majesty Government (HMG) under the license number 744/059/60 and affiliated with Social Welfare Council license number 14773 (SWC) and has been awarded certificate as a Charity Organization. We believe very strongly that sustainable poverty alleviation and empowerment needs to come from within a community.

SDVS Nepal was launched with the aim of providing quality service and placement for volunteers in a different field as per his/her own interest of programs under a same roof.We take this opportunity to invite the individuals/groups who are willing to work as volunteer and above all explore Nepal, the highest land of the world (Mt. Everest) and of course one of the most beautiful place on the earth. The nation deserves to have the pride of having unique and indeed very rich Eastern cultural and historical background. One may be fortunate to have the opportunity to be welcomed by very innocent people, whose mind still remains unstained, noble and pure. One can experience total satisfaction to receive warm hospitality, cordiality and friendliness that evolve directly from within.
