About this project

Madeleine Heimberger from Long Yang e.V. is responsible for this project
With a bakery in Nepal, we promote a healthy lifestyle and create perspectives in Nepal.  With your donation of 50 euros,

  • 5 women can take part in community workshops in the bakery's tea garden: creative workshops in the areas of healthy living, sustainability and traditional craftsmanship. In addition to a unique learning experience, the weekly meetings create a safe space. 
  • Alternatively, 5 children can participate in nutrition and health awareness sessions: we inspire the youngest generation with workshops with playful approaches about balaned diet and healthy, delicious baked goods. 
Help make a positive difference to the lives of women and children in Nepal with your donation and become part of a unique project.

Your donation not only enables the diverse, meaningful activities of the social business “Akasha Artisan Bakery” - it also promotes:

  • Training opportunities and job perspectives for young adults, especially women: several young women have already found work in the bakery, which supports them to be financially independent. Sustainable, economic growth, also promotes the resilience of the community. 
  • Healthy nutrition and sustainable agriculture in the region: the delicious products of the bakery serve as a healthy alternative. They contain vegetables, fruit, wholemeal flour and natural sweeteners - many ingredients from our regenerative, organic farm. The holistic approach can inspire a rethink on the ground. 
In particular, a regular monthly donation helps us to offer regular activities and thus achieve the greatest possible impact in the region. Help creating a long-lasting impact in the lives of young people in Nepal and become part of this unique project!
