Angalo Jestha Jeevan
Bahumulya Pratisthan
‘Angalo’ meaning warm hug in Nepali, is a concept and commitment
to embrace all Senior Citizens by sharing their knowledge and life
experiences. The Organisation was conceptualised with the
conviction and commitment to embrace Senior Citizens, advocate for
their rights and ensure quality care in their everyday lives. As
we believe, that 'Senior Lives Matter'.
Angalo was established in 2017 with a mission to support, network and connect with Senior Citizens and to focus on celebrating them. Angalo is registered as a not-for-profit Company under the Company Act 2063. Angalo carries the legacy of 'Service Fund for Elderly Citizens', the fund raising activity of Shanti Ashram which advocates for the rights and care of Senior Citizens. In the present bustling society forseen by Henry Davies (1871-1940) and aptly expressed as 'No time to see, in broad daylight, streams full of stars, like skies at night,”, we pause to applaud and appreciate the contribution of our Senior Citizens who have played a crucial role in constructing the society we now enjoy. Our Senior Citizens are like stars invisible to the unsearching eyes. We sometimes tend to forget their care and protection in shaping our lives.

In
the next 5 years Angalo aims to consolidate a strong, evidence-based
and effective Senior Citizens National organisation which will
facilitate the development of a powerful, sustained and coordinated
voice for elderly people's issues.
Angalo's pursuit of equality, equity and human rights is underpinned
by our vision of a Nepal that has re-imagined ageing; where Seniors
and Citizens of all ages are partners. Angalo will be active in
promoting quality ageing, life-long learning, health, happiness and
the well-being of Senior Citizens. Spearheading an environment
motivated to push new boundaries and live productively.
Angalo's mission is to innovate, advocate and support improvement of
the rights, benefits and services that meet the changing needs of
Senior Citizens, their care partners and the community. This
includes a concerted effort to influence multi-sector-level policy
perspectives and responses to ageing. These would also include
social protection and social security which would help transform the
culture of care within families and care homes in an accountable and
transparent manner.
