Ama Ghar Alumni
Since we opened our doors in 2001, over 100 children have called Ama Ghar their home. Our alumni include doctors, nurses, designers, trekking guides, I.T. professionals, childcare workers, Ama Ghar staff members, and more. Some serve on our Ama Ghar board in Nepal. Many come back home to Ama Ghar to celebrate holidays and milestones.
