What is the City of Joy?• City of Joy begins in a village where there are people

but no infrastructure and no jobs, clean water, education or medical facilities.

• Our goal is to turn these villages into thriving, productive and contributing communities.

• A full-size community will serve approximately 20,000 people.

Model Community Description

• The first “Model Community" will be outside the city limits of Kathmandu – the capital city.

• We will build the Model, then use it as a guideline to establish the full-size communities.

• The elevation of the Model City of Joy is 4000 ft. It is 2 hours away from the International Airport in Kathmandu, at the foothills of the Himalayas.
