Our Child Protection Foundation Nepal (OCPFN) has been incorporated in 2068 B.S Bagmati Zone, Nepal with social work. Founded by Binita Aryal, Our Child Protection Foundation Nepal started with a heartfelt mission: to care for children who have nowhere else to turn. In 2008, while traveling to Kathmandu, Binita encountered a young girl abandoned by her family, sparking a vision to create a refuge for children in need. Initially, Binita, along with her sister and mother, rented a small room in Dhapasi where they began caring for a few helpless children.
By 2011, their vision had grown, and with the support of 11 dedicated individuals, the foundation was officially registered with the District Administration Office in Kathmandu. Since then, the organization has expanded its mission, providing care, shelter, and protection to countless children across Nepal. Today, Our Child Protection Foundation Nepal is overseen by a board of seven directors, including one full-time director dedicated to managing daily operations.
President’s Message
“May all beings be happy, May all be free from illness, May all see what is auspicious, May no one suffer from sorrow.”
Human birth is considered the supreme creation. The birth of every human being is a natural process, but to live as a truly human being is not merely natural — it requires wisdom and effort. From birth, humans are given the capacity to learn and understand, but transforming that knowledge into discipline and responsibility is what makes life meaningful.
Just as a child learns to stand, walk, and run gradually through continuous effort, similarly, building a capable and meaningful life also demands constant work. Those who neglect this process often fall prey to ignorance, indifference, and despair. Therefore, it is our responsibility to awaken our consciousness, to walk the path of humanity, and to realize the divine potential within us.
Humanity is not defined by wealth or fame but by compassion, service, and moral values. When a person uses their talents and wisdom for the welfare of others, they become a true human being in the spiritual sense.
Serving others is not merely an act; it is a divine quality that brings peace and fulfillment to both the giver and the receiver. The person who selflessly serves others experiences inner satisfaction, spiritual growth, and a lasting sense of joy.
In today’s world, even though many people talk about service and compassion, true understanding of these words is rare. Service, donation, and cooperation are not only acts of charity but also acts of faith, sacrifice, and love for humanity. When these qualities are practiced selflessly, society becomes harmonious, and life becomes meaningful.
A society grows stronger when people support each other with honesty and positive thinking. When one’s heart is filled with truth, respect, and compassion, that person becomes a pillar of humanity. Such individuals not only create change but also inspire others to follow the same path.
Therefore, let us all move forward with sincerity and unity, serving with a spirit of cooperation, humility, and selflessness.
– With regards,
Binita Aryal

ABOUT THE FOUNDER
Binita Aryal’s journey began with a simple but powerful interaction in 2008. She was a young girl herself, but when she saw the helplessness of another child—cast out by her stepmother—Binita felt compelled to act. Though she lacked the resources to start an organization at that time, her commitment grew, and in 2011, she founded Our Child Protection Foundation Nepal. With her family and friends by her side, she transformed a childhood dream into a lifeline for Nepal’s vulnerable children, providing them with stability, love, and the chance for a brighter future.
Our mission is to support people who have been left behind—those who face social discrimination, disability, or come from disadvantaged castes and communities. Many of them have no clear path or hope for the future. We are inspired by people like **Bill Gates**, who used his success to help others who lacked education, healthcare, and the chance to live with dignity.
History shows that when people’s basic needs are ignored, societies begin to break down. Even in developed countries like **Britain**, we’ve seen unrest and protest as people struggle with poverty and inequality. It reminds us that progress means little if some people are still left without opportunity or hope.
In **Nepal**, the situation is even more heartbreaking. We recently heard about a mother who took her own life with her children because she couldn’t pay just **Rs. 130**. Stories like this show how urgent it is to reach out—to save lives, to restore hope, and to build a society where no one feels forgotten.
This is what inspired a group of kind-hearted people to create **OCPFN (Organization for the Care and Protection of the Forgotten and Neglected)**. Our goal is to reduce the gap between the rich and the poor by **educating street children**, **supporting exploited women**, and **helping those who feel they have no place in society**. Through small steps and heartfelt efforts, OCPFN has already made a real difference. Our work has been recognized by the public and highlighted in newspapers and television programs across Nepal.
At OCPFN, we believe that **every person deserves hope, education, and dignity**—and together, we can make that possible.
