Maggie Doyne
Maggie Doyne is the founder of Kopila Valley Children’s Home and School in Surkhet, Nepal. At age 19, she used her life-savings to build a home for orphaned children in war-torn Nepal. In 2010, she opened a school for 400 of the remote region’s most impoverished children. Now, at age 29, Maggie is the legal guardian to 50 children and her team's grassroots community model for orphan care has begun to spread around the world.
Her work has been championed by Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Nicholas Kristof as a cover story for The NYT Magazine, the Guardian, Huffington Post, TIME, VH1, CNN, and DoSomething.org. She’s been named as Glamour Magazine's Woman of the Year and used as an example for her ground breaking work at the Forbes 400 Summit on Philanthropy and was named one of the 30 most influential people under 30. Maggie was honored by the Dalai Lama as an Unsung Hero of Compassion and was named CNN's Hero of the Year in 2015.
She carries the message that poverty will be alleviated when our world's children are given their most basic needs and human rights -- a loving home, food and an education. She believes this can be achieved during her lifetime.
