Delek Children’s Foundation

We are committed to providing education and healthcare to underprivileged children in the Himalayas.

Delek Children’s Foundation is a charitable non-profit organization dedicated to providing children in need with education and healthcare throughout the Himalayan region of India, Nepal, Bhutan, and Tibet, irrespective of their ethnicity and national boundaries.

Our mission is to educate the Himalayan children, allowing them to attend High School and College, raise their children with education, and eventually help their communities. Educating these children gives them the proper nutrition and tools to develop into productive adults, have a better future, and continue the cycle for future generations while saving the traditions and culture of the Himalayan people.

Fundraiser for 2025 Eye Camp

We are excited to announce a life-changing initiative that Delek Children’s Foundation will organize in April 2025 in partnership with renowned Ophthalmologist Dr. Sanduk Ruit in Nepal. After many months of planning, we finally got in touch with Dr. Ruit, and he was very receptive to our request and agreed to join us with our project. He could commit to this Eye Camp in April 2025 despite his busy schedule. This will be our 3rd Free Eye Camp in India and Nepal. This time, we have selected the remote village of Nubri in Nepal as we have received multiple requests from the village. We couldn’t visit this area during the last Eye Camp in Tsum Valley in April due to time and budget constraints. Many villagers in these parts of the country are still struggling with vision impairment, particularly with cataracts, and we aim to bring hope and healing to this underserved community.
What We’re Doing: Our team will provide free Eye Check-Ups and Cataract Surgeries to those in need under the skilled hands of Dr. Ruit, an award-winning ophthalmologist. Dr. Ruit dedicated his career to restoring sight and transforming lives, and we are honored to have him lead this mission.
Our Goal: To make this vision a reality, we aim to raise $30,000. This funding will help cover:
  • Provide free eye examinations for hundreds of individuals.
  • Distribute prescription glasses to those in need.
  • Educate the community about eye health and preventive care.
  • Deliver food supplies, clothing, and meals to enhance their well-being.
  • Purchase Medical supplies and equipment.
  • Provide accommodation and meals to the medical team.
Every dollar counts, and no donation is too small!
Together, we can change lives and restore hope to the villagers of Nubri.
