Introduction
Home for Rescue of the Afflicted Children (HORAC/Nepal), established in 2005, is a non-for-profit social organization.

HORAC/Nepal aims to provide all of the children under its care with good education and a high level of guidance, so that they can grow to be assets to their community.
