Über uns

Dirghajeevi Voluntary Group (DVG), registered in 2006, is a Non-Governmental and non-profit making organization (NGO) formed by a group of young energetic volunteers with high passion to serve children suffering from and undergoing treatment for cancer
Samir Shrestha, the founder of the group, began volunteering over 10 years ago at the Chitwan Cancer Hospital before moving to Kathmandu to study social work. From a small group of social worker volunteers, DVG has grown in its operations and in 2018 opened a day care centre in Lolitpur, Kathmandu. On top of psycho-social care, Samir and his team provide families and their children suffering from cancer with awareness raising campaigns, trips and awareness raising events e.g. a mother’s evening. The DVG aims to provide childhood cancer patients and their families with quality psycho-social care and a tight-knit community.
