About Music4Children, the charity

The civil war in Nepal has left a generation of children homeless and orphaned. In 2005, a small group of musicians, touched by the plight of the street children of Nepal, formed the charity Music4Children.

Today, through extreme world-record breaking events and a sense of humour, we have raised enough funds to build an orphanage just outside of Kathmandu, large enough to house and nurture 56 children.

Why is Music4Children special?

	100% of all public donated funds go directly to our beneficiaries – the charity is entirely volunteer-run with no fancy offices, overpaid directors or people with clipboards harassing you on your way to work (yes, they are paid).
	Our fundraising is extreme – we go to great heights and lengths to raise money for our cause. We broke the world records for the world's highest gig (above Everest's base camp) and the world's longest gig.
	It's all about the music – the charity is run by musicians and is supported by some of the UK's most talented bands who regularly hold gigs to benefit the charity. Music is how we fundraise, educate and heal.
	Even our fundraising makes a difference – our free daytime and evening gigs throughout London create an atmosphere of community spirit, family and goodwill.
