Dear Friends and well wishers
Hundreds of people have been killed by a massive 7.9 magnitude earthquake that hit Nepal on April 25, 2015. There is widespread devastation across Nepal. The death toll, now over 1,000, continues to rise as search and rescue efforts are underway in Kathmandu and across the country. People are still trapped under collapsed buildings in Kathmandu, and there is no way to accurately guess how many are in need throughout the other cities and thousands of villages at this time.
The immediate need on the ground is for medical support, search and rescue, emergency shelters and food and water among many other things. As the days, weeks and months go by and after the humanitarian needs are addressed, Nepal will need to begin the healing and rebuilding process. The magnitude of the damage is still being assessed, but hundreds of buildings have collapsed including many homes and many of Nepal’s ancient and iconic temples and monuments.
Your valuable donations will go through my organization, 'Himshikhar Socio Cultural Society', and we will distribute 100% of the funds accordingly based on the latest needs on the ground to the earthquake victims. Each cents count.!
All of our staff and coordinator are safe in Kathmandu, Banepa, Chitwan and Kaski in this devastating situation, our friends and families encourages us to help the victims in any possible way. Therefore, our organization has decided to contribute two thousand dollars (2000$) towards victims' relief aid.
We will continue to provide updates and information regarding the allocation of funds.
Thank you all for your support.
