Sunrise Children's Association Inc Community Development Appeal

SCAI supports orphaned and abandoned children and youth at Sunrise Orphanage and other marginalised groups within the local community, through the provision of education and facilitation of various training and development programs, which will enable them to become employable and self-sufficient in the long term.

SCAI is a not-for-profit, non-government charity registered in Australia and an International Non-Government Organisation (NGO) in Nepal. SCAI does not receive any government funding, and as such depends entirely on the generous donations of businesses and individuals. SCAI continually strives to keep operating and administration costs to a minimum, with all work in Australia being done by volunteers.
