The Alpine Fund:  a small, locally based, non-profit, non-governmental, secular organization that uses the incredible mountain resources of Kyrgyzstan to help the country’s most vulnerable youth challenge themselves for future success.

 

We offer children and young adults in orphanages, residential facilities and hot lunch programs the chance to escape the confines of their daily surroundings and challenge themselves in a mountain environment. Through hikes, climbs, education programs,  individual mentoring, and college scholarships we seek to gain the trust of these youth and work with them to brighten their future through education and mountain advenutre.
