Our accomplishments have all been made possible through the efforts of porters, staff members, supporters, and volunteers from around the world. Our two main organizational arms are Porters’ Progress, Nepal (PPN) and Porters’ Progress, USA (PPUSA).

Porters’ Progress, USA is a 501(c)(3) charitable
organization that serves as an awareness-building and fundraising arm
of PPN outside of Nepal. Tax-deductible
donations made to PPUSA go directly to supporting Porters’ Progress
in Nepal. The PPUSA board is made up of diverse individuals whose personal
and professional expertise includes intimate knowledge of Nepal and
the porter community. |
