Overview

About International Nepal Fellowship North America

International Nepal Fellowship North America helps carry INF Nepal’s work to places where medical care can be hard to reach. Donors support hospital services, outreach, community development, disaster response, and specialised care for people living with disability, leprosy, spinal cord injury, obstetric fistula, chronic disease, and other medical needs. It is a practical way to stand behind work that reaches into remote parts of Nepal with both care and follow-through.

What sets this group apart is the way it supports locally led work in Nepal with funding, technical expertise, and partnership support from Omaha. That means hospital care, self-help groups, outreach, and specialised services can keep reaching remote western districts with help that is both practical and specific.
