Manavsewa Ashram is dedicated to rescuing, treating, nurturing, protecting, and reuniting with families those who are helpless, destitute, disabled, orphaned, and physically or mentally weak, and who are forced to live difficult lives under the open sky on streets and public places. The ashram officially began its services on Bhadra 13, 2069 B.S. (2012 A.D.) with its headquarters in Makwanpur, Hetauda.
The ashram has declared its goal to make Nepal a nation free from street-dependent individuals who are unable to care for themselves and have no one to look after them, including the destitute, helpless, disabled, orphaned, and extremely weak individuals, by the year 2082 B.S. (2025 A.D.). With a commitment to effectively implement this mission, the ashram is currently operating 26 service centers in 20 districts across the seven provinces, rescuing and managing street-dependent individuals from all 77 districts of Nepal.
