About NC&BC
The Nepal Cleft and Burn Center is a 501(c)3 Non Profit Charitable Organization headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. The Nepal Cleft and Burn Center was originally organized by a group of US based Tibetan Rug importers in an effort to give back to the wonderful people of Nepal. However, the organization now depends almost entirely on generous support from individuals.
The NC&BC operates out of its Utah headquarters in an extremely cost-effective manner, with almost no overhead. Since we began seeking contributions in 2006, over 95% of funds received have gone directly to the project!
Our mission statement is βTo deliver quality, deformity-correcting reconstructive surgery to the poorest of the poor of Nepal, through a permanent, sustainable healthcare infrastructure.β
Our first NC&BC, a 16,000 square foot clinic in Kathmandu opened 2014. Since then, we have become the foremost teaching hospital for burns and cleft palette surgeries in Nepal.
