Help us support the world's most abandoned people

Promise Nepal works directly with leprosy sufferers and their families in Nepal, especially those who have slipped through the net. We cure and care for them and wherever possible, help them become self-supporting. The solution is a course of drugs which arrests the disease within days and can prevent the deformity which so often leads to abandonment.

We also support purpose-built homes and villages where their special needs are met.

Message from René Stäheli,
President of the International Federation of Anti-Leprosy Associations


On the occasion of the 57th World Leprosy Day, I am writing to you on behalf of the 14 Members of the International Federation of Anti-Leprosy Associations (ILEP). I would like to extend greetings to all those affected by leprosy and our thanks to all those individuals, organisations and governments actively working together for a world without leprosy.

Over the last 43 years, ILEP Members have helped cure many millions of people affected by leprosy and continue to support vital leprosy work in 82 countries. In addition to the treatment provided, ILEP Members have also helped to prevent disability, reduce stigma and discrimination, and restore dignity to those affected.
