Today is World Food Day! 🍽

Although enough food is produced worldwide to feed everyone, around 645 million faced hunger in 2025, and 2.69 billion people could not afford a healthy diet. Children remain among those most at risk of malnutrition. (Source: UNICEF)

Today’s World Food Day reminds us that hunger is ever-present – and yet its eradication is within reach. Through our Food Relief Programme in Nepal, we are distributing emergency aid parcels to people severely affected by the floods. Through our soup kitchen, we are also providing homeless people and people living in poverty in Kathmandu with a hot meal as the cold season approaches.

Nepal needs help that lasts. Together, we can help turn despair into hope once more – and help build a future free from hunger. 💪

13 Years of Remembrance & Gratitude 🙏✨
Today, October 8, 2026, marks the 13th Anniversary of our beloved Akong Rinpoche’s passing.
The ROKPA kids and staff gathered to honor the immense compassion and lifelong support of Rinpoche and Mom Lea. To mark this special day, we:
• Lit traditional butter lamps at the Boudhanath Stupa.
• Offered sacred Khatas on Rinpoche’s statue in the ROKPA Guest House Stupa Room.
• Recited Swift Return Prayers and lit candles at the entrance of the Akong Rinpoche Memorial Centre.
We remain forever grateful for the light he brought into our lives.
