Help
Porters :
Nepal Sanctuary Treks encourage travelers, traveling
to Nepal to bring their old/used warm cloths
such as waterproof jacket, pants, sweaters,
gloves, hats, sunglasses, socks and shoes to
donate porters that you use them while trekking
in remote and high altitude or donate it to
The Porters Clothing Band which provides porters
with warm clothing, run by International Porters
Protection Group based Kathmandu.
 Most
of the porters are illiterate, unskilled
labor from middle hills, are poor, not
equipped for the environment of high altitude
that they are in and have more risks of
illness and accident. Nepal Sanctuary
Treks has been supporting them with Insurance
for medical attention and enough warm
clothing. We also encourage our trek guides
to teach them common courtesy, altitude
sickness, hypothermia, frostbite and their
preventions, hygienic awareness, and significant
of environment.
Mr. Peter Clark-a teacher from Island
School, Hong Kong and a very good friend
of Nepal Sanctuary Treks, collects new/used
warm cloths in Hong Kong and brings them
to Kathmandu to support porters.
