Umbrella will phase out its work in Nepal, having succeeded in our original mission of supporting 411 vulnerable children, enabling them to reconnect with their families and complete their school-level education. However, to ensure we have enough funding for the educational fees and support for the remaining children, whilst also providing long-term support for special cases, we still need to secure additional funding. We have a projected shortfall of €50,000, of which we aim to raise over the coming months.
