Raising Karnali is a two-month transformative initiative dedicated to empowering girls across all 10 districts of Karnali Province. Through this project, our team will engage directly with communities, selecting 20 girls from each district—reaching 200 girls in total—and equipping them with opportunities to grow, lead, and succeed.

Our program focuses on three core areas:

• Sports development (with a special emphasis on football)

• Education

• Leadership training

Our goal is to establish 10 women’s football teams—one in each district—strengthening the foundation of women’s sports throughout the province. To further build local leadership, we will award 10 scholarships for promising girls—one from each district—to pursue the D-License Coaching Course, helping them become future women coaches and role models in their communities.

Beyond training and development, Raising Karnali aims to uncover and understand the social, cultural, and economic barriers that restrict the progress of girls and women. By working closely with families, schools, and local stakeholders, we seek to identify long-term, sustainable solutions that create lasting change.

As a foundation committed to empowering women and girls across Nepal, we are beginning our journey in one of the country’s most marginalized provinces—with the vision of expanding our programs nationwide in the years ahead.

During the project, we will distribute:

• Sports equipment for all 200 participants

• Educational materials to support their academic advancement
