Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) is an international relief, development and peace organization with a mission to share God’s love and compassion for all by responding to basic human needs and working for peace and justice.  Established 100 years ago by Anabaptist groups in North America, MCC first began sending volunteers to Nepal in 1956, and eventually shifted to directly supporting and building the capacity of local partners.

The vision of MCC Nepal is greater dignity and opportunity for marginalized people by accompanying local partners to develop and implement programs based on the priorities of the communities they serve.  Cross-cutting themes integrated across MCC-supported projects in Nepal include peacebuilding, social inclusion and environmental care.

MCC Nepal is a registered INGO with the Government of Nepal’s Social Welfare Council.  We support the efforts of local partners in the sectors of food security and sustainable livelihoods; WASH and health, including mental health; rural education and youth empowerment; and emergency disaster response.
