WTMY is an NGO established by an Australian couple in Kathmandu, provides practical and vocational training support to more than 300 children and young people, who are homeless or on the verge of being homeless. WTMY works to a holistic model offering intervention to vulnerable children and young people.

Utilising a strong community partnership approach WTMY has been able to offer a diverse range of services and vocational training opportunities within small and growing, not-for-profit business projects.

During the last five years, partnership with SAVE, WTMY was able to run an effective tailoring program which include Basic, Advance and special tailoring courses. The project intervention will cover specific areas in Kathmandu & Bhaktapur, in Nepal, such as Tilganga, Baneswor, Kapan, Pashupati areas, Shifal, Boudha and Manohara. The young women enrolled in the courses are supported not only in acquiring vocational skills but also receive continuing emotional support. They will also receive career development until they are settled.
