 A Note From The Board

The past few weeks have been extremely challenging for the WPPC Nepal Foundation, our friends, and our supporters. We are deeply saddened by the events surrounding former board member Mr. Pun and the pain that his situation has caused for many in our community and beyond. The WPPC Nepal Foundation has a long history of denouncing the victimization of women and children and advocating for those who cannot protect themselves. We are simultaneously outraged and disappointed by even the possibility that such horrific wrongs would be perpetrated by a person affiliated with our organization. We ask that you join us in praying for the alleged survivor and her family, particularly that God would bring comfort and begin the long, painful process of healing.

The members of the WPPC Nepal Foundation board are resolutely committed to moving forward with honesty, integrity, and transparency. When the board learned of the allegations against Mr Pun, we took immediate action to remove him from his position, and we are fully committed to cooperating with law enforcement to ensure that every aspect of this situation is brought to light. While the alleged abuse did not involve the WPPC Nepal Foundation, nor any of the women and children we care for in Nepal, we are currently performing a thorough review of our organization to determine what, if anything, we might have done differently to prevent the victimization of this young person as well as what concrete steps we can take to ensure that such grievous crimes do not happen again. Our commitment to aiding the victims of human trafficking remains as strong as ever.
