Basic medical care in Nepal is according to the World health Organisation poor, for around 10,000 citizens
there are an average of 2,1 doctors available .More than half of the population has no access to medical
care or aids such as hearing aids for instance. Mostly hit are young hearing impaired Nepalese who due to
their disabillity and lack of funds , get no help from the health system, Due to this they are not able to
communicate , so that education and maybe later a job to give them a perspective and a reasonable life,
aren´t possible.Here it is where the NAHOH steps in to help. We contacted Macha Bhai Mahrjan, who
founded this organization in 1996. We wrote to him about our venture and were pleased to hear from him
that it would be wonderful for him to have two hearing aid specialists from Germany supporting his organization.
NAHOH needs its own workplace (laboratory) to make Ear Moulds themselves. Ear Moulds adjust a hearing aid,
and have the function of connecting and transmitting sound to the ear from the actual hearing aid.

Without this hearing aids don´t work and as each ear is different they have to be made individually.
We want to help Macha Bhai Marjahn get this workshop (laboratory) set up and also to train his staff
to cope with the new materials they will have to work with. The Laboratory will be equipped so that the
staff will be able to offer service independently in the future. Our aim is to ship equipment and the
materials for producing theses Ear Moulds to Katmandu before we head there so that we can start when
we arrive.
Therefore we would appreciate the smallest donation to make this project a success.
If you don´t have a credit card or Paypal you can donate via our donation account .
