SUNRISE CHILDREN’S ASSOCIATION INC. AUSTRALIA
“Bringing a brighter future to the needy children of Nepal”
SCAI is a young and dynamic charity, established in Australia in July 2005 by three local women with a mission to provide a brighter future to impoverished children and youth in Nepal. It now cares for over seventy children at Sunrise Orphanage in Nepal, who may have otherwise faced a bleak future of starvation, poverty, slavery, trafficking, being forced into armed conflict, or simply end up on the streets of the increasingly crowded Kathmandu. Whilst providing basic care such as food, education, medical care and clothing, SCAI are committed to developing the skills of the staff and children of Sunrise Orphanage and the local community in which they live to empower them to become employable and self-sufficient in the long term. SCAI are working in partnership with various local organisations in Nepal on various training, development and income generating programs to achieve this.
Buying land and building “Sunrise Children’s Village” in Kathmandu is the next major step towards establishing self-sufficiency and sustainability, and all proceeds from our next major fundraising initiative will go towards this project.
SCAI is a volunteer run, not-for-profit, non-government organisation. It does not receive any government funding, and as such depends entirely on the generous donations of businesses and individuals. We continually strive to keep administration costs in Australia to an absolute minimum and what small expenses we do incur we fundraise separately, so your donations and sponsorships can continue to go where it is needed most, to the children and the training and development projects SCAI is facilitating.
SCAI is a community based organisation accountable to its members and supporters and is governed by its rules, which are available on request. SCAI is committed to working in equal partnership with its overseas beneficiaries in an open, honest and fully transparent manner.
SCAI is now also registered as an International NGO (non-government organisation) in Nepal.
