Raksha Ascent is a 501(c)3 for-impact organization that empowers underprivileged girls in Nepal through transformative self-development treks in the Himalayas.

We serve young women who have faced serious hardship, often orphaned, survived sexual violence, abandonment, or trafficking. Through 7-10 day trekking expeditions paired with self-development workshops, we help these young women build confidence, courage, resilience, and life skills.

Our mission is rooted in a simple belief: when a girl discovers her inner strength, she can change her future—and the world around her.

🌿 Trek to transform.
🌍 Climb with purpose.
🚺 Empower the next generation of change-makers.
