Award winning design. Award winning engine. The volvo xc90. Good evening. Thank you for joining russ. Its a growing trend in travel, voluntourism, dogooders hoping to see the world while supporting a worthy cause. But things are not always what they seem. Tonight a shocking investigation into suspect orphanages in nepal. Heres abc chief Foreign Correspondent reporter welcome to kathmandu, nepal. A mecca for mountain climbers and spiritual seekers alike. It is also a major hub for travelers who are lured by the opportunity to give something back, called voluntourists. Hello. Reporter nepals orphanages attracted voluntourists from around the world, part of a booming billiondollar voluntourist industry, popular as a schoolteacher i was interested in volunteering. Reporter moira waterfall was 29 when she took a trekking vacation in nepal. She heard about an orphanage called happy home from fellow hikers. Moira decided to teach english there. She made her own fundraising website to help the orphanage raise money from outside donors. And the man who ran the video. Then one day a shocking encounter changed everything. I was just going for a jog. I ran into one of the children that were in the orphanage and she was with a woman who was old enough to be her mother. Aunty, they call you aunty. She said, hes a bad man, trying to explain to me what happened, really upset, in broken english. I didnt understand, i didnt know who this woman was with her. To my knowledge, the majority of these children were orphans. Reporter on happy homes website the girl was described but she told moira this was her mother. She started explaining to me the man was stealing their stuff, that he was physically abusing them. Reporter word spread among the volunteers who helped bring a case. He was found guilty of severe child neglect. Nobody wants to believe when you put time and energy and love and money into something you think is good, that it may not be. Its a horrible, shocking feeling. Moira had personally raised 4,000 for happy home and says she knows her raised tens of thousands more. While there are some legitimate orphanages in nepal, experts here warn that too often voluntourism fees end up going into the owners pockets. More often than not, the kids arent actually orphans at all. They get volunteers to come, they create websites. Of course, you know, the foreigners heart is just broken and they just give and give and give. Reporter this is anna howell and martin punax, working for nepal. They work with the nepali government to rescue children from orphanages and bring them to this transit home. Every child here was rescued from an orphanage. Wellmeaning foreigners are funding exactly. A trafficking regime . Yeah. Reporter heres how it works. Orphanages in nepal can get thousands in donations from foreigners. But they need children to get this money. So they send agents into rural villages to convince parents to send their kids to the city. In these remote villages, desperate poverty. A trafficker shows up. Whats the pitch . It could be someone thats got high status, dressed well, promises sponsorship, boarding school, health care. The parents turn the children over to the trafficker . They see this as a way of helping their children to have a better life. But all these promises are generation nepal says happened to sushila, rushila, and sudib, siblings from a small village outside kathmandu. The Organization Says the three children were rescued from a neglectful orphanage in a raid that was broadcast on local tv. Was it a bad place . How was it bad . Reporter they say they were beaten. Hit the bottom of your foot . Reporter the kids tell us they were tuberculosis. Were the children told to tell the white people they were orphans . Yes. You were supposed to tell them no mom, no dad, you were orphans . Yes. Reporter unicef estimates 85 of children in orphanages in nepal have at least one living parent. The Child Welfare board keeping tabs on orphanages is like a devastating earthquake that struck just last year, creating more chaos that human Rights Groups warn could lead to more orphanage trafficking. We notice the website for happy home was still being updated. Could they still be open for business . . . Home . Reporter my producer posed as a potential volunteer. . Happy home . Reporter turns out this man has nearly 100 children in his care. Our producer asked him about the abuse conviction. He blamed it on western attacks. Could you explain what you mean by that . I was in jail also. For what . What were you in prison for . Kidnap. Kidnapping . Reporter in addition to the conviction for severe child kidnapping and fraud, charges which were ultimately dismissed. How do you explain the fact that you have 100 kids in your house, but you have these charges and fines youre paying for child abuse . How do you explain that . Actually, happy home is already we spent more than ten years here. And the case was just one and a half year past. It might not be true. Id no. There is no proof. Its just propaganda. Reporter he says hes appealing the court decision. When the government does rescue kids they often hand them over to next generation nepal, who works to reunite them with their families. You guys are going home, how are you feeling . Reporter the siblings are hopeful this is the end of their ordeal. . Reporter the childrens mother and grandmother say they sent them to an orphanage in kathmandu in the hopes of an english education. They were devastated to find out the children were not being cared for. Yeah. Reporter today theyre being welcomed home by their grandmother. Hi, sweetie reporter a moment years in the making. Your grandchildren are home reporter according to martin, finding childrens families can be like finding a needle in the haystack, but the end result is worth it. Its wonderful seeing them here now in their village with their grandmother. Reporter a happy day for the siblings. But there are many more children like them still waiting to go home. You really want people to come to nepal, volunteering in an most of them are scams, theyre not real orphanages. Reporter terry moran in kathmandu, nepal. Up next, u. S.
