Ms. Shrestha registered her residence as an Old Age Management Social Welfare Trust (OAMSWT) in the year 2000.
Even though the organization is registered as home for old age; Ms. Dil Shova Shrestha started taking in abandoned children as well. Ms. Shrestha has been sheltering more than 90 bridhas, including child victims of war from Karnali. Her responsibilities include feeding them, doing their laundry, doctor visits, and taking care of their basic needs.
