“Ek Artha” – an NGO “inspired by you” – stands as a beacon of hope and transformation in Nepal. Our name itself carries profound meaning: “Artha” represents purpose, meaning, and significance in life.
The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.
Our Foundation Story
The Ek Artha Foundation was founded on the fundamental belief that everyone deserves to understand their purpose – their “Artha” – which is central to both personal and collective fulfillment. We believe that everyone has a responsibility to act, and that we all perform better when we work together. For the past eight years, our unwavering commitment to improving lives in Nepal has fueled our efforts to overcome complex challenges. The innocent faces of children – these little angels – give us courage every day to continue our work. As an organization, we believe that in everyone’s life, there is one single motivating factor that can change a person’s entire life.
Our Simple Yet Powerful Mission
Our mission is beautifully simple: carrying out meaningful tasks in a simple manner that brings “Artha” (meaning) to our existence. We strive to:
- Add value to individual lives
- Serve as a beacon pointing the way to a brighter future
- Make a tangible difference in each person’s life
- Foster community development and collective growth
How We Work
At Ek Artha Foundation, we believe in the power of collaboration and community engagement. We work hand-in-hand with local communities, government bodies, educational institutions, and international partners to create sustainable change.
Our approach is holistic – we don’t just provide temporary relief, but work towards long-term solutions that empower individuals and communities to thrive independently.
