The Sukman Medical Polyclinic was built by the Health and Ed 4 Nepal[1] non-profit, which provides ongoing support. The clinic was severely damaged by the 23 April 2015 earthquake that struck Nepal but remains in partial operation.
The local pre-secondary school, Shree Bikash, was also severely damaged in the 23 April 2015 earthquake and its remains were demolished. Re-building of the school began in November 2015 via funding sourced by the non-profits Trekking for Kids[2] and Health and Ed 4 Nepal.
