The Kathmandu Valley Preservation Trust (KVPT) was founded in 1990 to protect the rich architectural and urban heritage of the Kathmandu Valley. This region is home to a unique concentration of significant architecture, extending beyond its seven UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Today, development pressures threaten not only individual monuments but also the future of public spaces and urban life.
Over the past three decades, KVPT has successfully saved more than 90 monuments, including temples, shrines, and palaces. Major campaigns like the Kathmandu Darbar Initiative and the Earthquake Reconstruction Campaign have been pivotal in preserving this heritage.
KVPT relies entirely on donations to fund restoration and rebuilding projects. Your contributions are vital for continuing the mission of safeguarding the extraordinary built heritage of the Kathmandu Valley. With generous support from diverse donors, KVPT has completed over fifty historic building projects as part of the Earthquake Response Campaign following the devastating 2015 earthquake.
Join the effort to preserve the architectural treasures of the Kathmandu Valley. Your donation, whether in cryptocurrency or cash, can help ensure that these historic sites are protected for future generations. Every contribution counts!
