On August 26, 2026, a catastrophic flash flood swept through northern Nepal near the Tibet border after a massive collapse of glacial ice, rock and debris sent a powerful surge down the Bhote Koshi River. The flooding devastated communities, destroyed critical infrastructure and left many areas difficult to reach. Fuel Relief Fund is a nonprofit organization that provides free fuel during major disasters. Working with local partners, FRF intends to purchase and distribute free fuel.
People will be without power, electricity, and have a disruption in fuel supply due to the flooding. Fuel is needed to fuel generators and vehicles for clinics, medical and aid organizations, service providers, and individual victims of the flash floods.
Fuel Relief Fund will provide free fuel and is currently deploying to Nepal. Gasoline and diesel fuel will be given to individuals, other non-profit agencies, clinics, medical groups, etc. for use in generators and vehicles. Fuel will be distributed in 5 to 55 gallon drums as well as delivery by tank wagon. Fuel will be provided by international supply partners.
Fuel Relief Funds provides free fuel immediately following a large scale natural disaster until the fuel supply can be restored.
