The Trust's impact is amplified by a global network of supporters, volunteers, and partner organisations who believe in the power of cross-cultural collaboration. From Scotland to the United States, international friends of the Himalayan Sherpa Family Trust contribute time, skills, and resources to bring projects to life.
Our International Partners
Key collaborative relationships include Joye Appleton (Shift Construction & Consulting LLC, USA), Dawa Sherpa (Edinburgh, UK), and numerous individual supporters who have volunteered on-the-ground or contributed financially to Trust projects over the years.
How It Works
International supporters provide financial contributions and technical expertise while local community members contribute labour, local knowledge, and sustained ownership. This model ensures projects are completed efficiently and remain well-maintained long after international partners have returned home.
