Freedom Social Foundation
Freedom Social Foundation is the social initiative taken by Freedom Adventures to share what we have learned over the years working within this industry. Adventure tourism is without a doubt a sector that is progressively growing in Nepal. However, the people who come into it do not come into the sector by learning about it but rather work their way up from the bottom.
