About Sharing Hearts in Nepal

Sharing Hearts in Nepal was born from a small event. In 2013, Kyung had the opportunity to join a team of acupuncturists traveling to Nepal to provide free acupuncture. After witnessing the poor living conditions of the people and their limited access to healthcare, she arranged travel to Nepal in 2015 through a friend who worked with the Red Cross. Her charitable activities began in Pokhara with the Pema T’sal Sakya Monastery and expanded to include the local Tibetan refugee camps. Since 2015, Kyung continued to support the boys at the monastery by providing egg money and found ways to support others in Pokhara after the 2015 earthquake. She saw so much need but felt limited in her capacity to help as just one person. So, she founded Sharing Hearts in Nepal in 2017 to continue her work.
