Cheppu Himal is dedicated to the belief that we are one global family. We see the earth as a sphere with a great richness of diversity. But it is our unity, not our differences, that give us strength. Your appreciation of the beauty of handmade items contributes to the success of the mission. When you purchase Cheppu Himal products, you are helping to support not only fair trade, but also contributing to a school in Nepal.
When the Cheppu workshop first began production, only 50 students attended the Children\'s Model School in Kathmandu. Now, over 200 students of all ages from grades Kg to 12 are in attendance. A portion of the proceeds from the business helps fund the school and provides scholarships.
Practicing as they have for centuries, Himalayan artists produce unique one of a kind pieces reflecting the care and tradition of ancient Asian cultures. Tibetan Buddhism and Hinduism are the religious foundation of Nepal. Spiritual devotion infuses every aspect of life. Cheppu Himal is dedicated to supporting these artistic and spiritual traditions, both financially and creatively.
