The organization Maiti Nepal was established in 1993, and since then, it has rescued over 35,000 women and children from human trafficking and sexual exploitation. Additionally, the organization raises funds for both Nepal and Tanzania to build schools. The organization was founded by Anuradha Koirala, who has dedicated her life to these monumental battles. She has won several notable awards for her outstanding work, including the CNN Hero of the Year award in 2010, the Mother Teresa Award in 2014, and the prestigious Indian Peace Prize Palma Shirii in 2017.
In addition to combating human trafficking, the organization places a strong focus on providing education to children in Tanzania and Nepal. Over the past few years, the organization has raised several million dollars for the construction of schools and to support the well-being of the children. Together, they have provided education to approximately 400 children at the Theresa Academy. The students attending this academy have faced challenges such as human trafficking, poverty, or being orphaned. Furthermore, the organization assists in sponsoring higher education for these students. This academy, too, has received several noteworthy awards, including the Children’s World Prize in 2010.
Maiti Nepal expressed interest in establishing a long-term collaboration with me. This collaboration entails my involvement in fundraising efforts and simultaneously sharing information about the organization. Additionally, I have been chosen as a co-host for a large charitable gala held annually by Maiti Nepal in Puerto Banus. This is incredibly exciting as I will be guiding numerous guests through a significant evening filled with incredible entertainment from around the world, all the while sharing my own experiences from my charity project in English. I have already participated in multiple online conferences, and during my participation in Miss Norway, I will travel to Puerto Banus in Marbella to take part in planning and meetings.
I am greatly looking forward to being a co-host on such an international and substantial platform. I am truly enthusiastic about contributing to such an important cause while ensuring a brighter future for thousands of women and children.
