Welcome to Purna


The Purna Shrestha Memorial Home for Children in Pokhara, Nepal

came into being in June 2009 when the children of Purna Shrestha determined that a
orphanage be established in memory of their dear mother who sadly passed away in 2006.
Purna was herself an orphan and through love, kindness and generosity she lived a long and fruitful life as a wife, a mother and the matriarch of the Shrestha family.

It is with same love, kindness and generosity that the Shrestha family have donated land
on which to build the orphanage and, through this foundation begin to build the orphanage, brick by brick through a variety of not-for-profit business initiatives and the generous donations of those who know of the orphanage and the passionate commitment of the Shrestha family members in Nepal and Australia.
