Lorraine Nepal is a French Association which has been created in 1997, by -among others- the father of one member of Solu ^ Cham. Their main activity has been -and still is- to promote Education & Health in Solu-Khumbu, focusing in particular on bringing small kids ( from nursery to class 6 ) at school.
They successfully completed the construction of 4 primary schools located in the villages of Charghare, Tumbuk, Salabesi and Phera, as well as 2 Health Posts in Ringmo and Salabesi. Lorraine-Nepal today contributes actively to the running costs and operations of these facilities, and has established successful godfathering processes allowing sponsoring of the scholarships of the children.
Solu^Cham does not intend to overlap the activity of Lorraine-Nepal , bur rather to complement it, by bringing extra-support , within the frames of their existing projects towards the primary schools ( LN & Public schools).
Solu ^ Cham in turn, commits itself to support these schools where ever the current administrator ( Lorraine Nepal) is short of resources, whenever possible.
This translates for example in 2022 in :
Doctors & Nurses
English Teachers
SUSTAINABILITY Teachers
Upgrading Premises
School Equipment
for Scholarship Sponsoring
Born at the foot of the Mont-Blanc, moving towards the foothills of Mount Everest. Solu^Cham aims at Connecting Mountain's People and Bringing sustainable development opportunities for the youth of Solu-Khumbu in Nepal.
