Namaste Friends!

It is with great pleasure that we present you with our new project progress report.

Journey Home Foundation (JHF) under the initiative of of promoting gender equality and women empowerment has been providing various kinds of training opportunities to girls as requested by them. 

With the world still reeling under the threat of corona virus, the daily lives of people all over the world has been affected greatly. But, even though the virus is spreading like wildfire, the daily lives of people is necessary to run. So, with necessary precautions taken, general public has started to run their daily lives.

With the advent of monsoon season, the joy of farming to farmers are very high. But recently, that was not the case in many parts of Nepal mainly due to heavy rainfall that resulted in floods and landslides. Of the affected places, Chame of Manang, Melamchi of Sindhupalchowk and upper Gorkha region was heavily affected. Many people lost all their hard earned earnings and their properties got swept by flood. Although there was massive loss of properties fortunately there were not loss of lives in large scale.  

JHF team, with the resources available with us, went to help the people affected in rural areas of upper Gorkha. The main bridge that was connecting the rural Gorkha with the nearest headquarters was swept by flood. So, it was a bit tedious walk towards the affected area. Monsoon always results in bad road condition in rural areas making it very difficult to walk. But,we managed to go and distribute relief materials in various VDCs of upper Gorkha.

All-in-all this campaign was a success. This would not have been possible without you help and continous support. JHF family hopes to be blessed by your continous help and support in the coming days in our noble work for the betterment of society. 

Also, with the global pandemic of Corona virus affecting the world, we would urge everyone to stay safe and practice social distancing to avoid the spread of this deadly disease. And also urge everyone to be vaccinated to immunize and control the corona pandemic

Stay Safe

Cheers!

Although the risk of Corona virus has been reeling all over, Nepal has relaxed its lockdown and restriction formalities. With this, the normal lives have been resumed to some extent. But tourism in Nepal has been hardest hit. Tourism in Nepal is mostly international based but with Covid - 19 that has not been possible. But, domestic tourism has seen quite a boom in Nepal in current context as many places has seen quite a huge influx of domestic tourists compared to minimal number in previous years. 

With this in mind, JHF Nepal initiated a training camp where people, especially women, were provided basic cooking training and hospitality knowledge ( about home-stay). This training is the first training conducted by JHF since the covid-19 and lockdown in Nepal. This training was organized in cooperation in the local government and JHF. After this training, the participants will head back to their respective villages and start their own small venture in contributing in local tourism as well as domestic tourism.   

Also, with the global pandemic of Corona virus affecting the world, we would urge everyone to stay safe and practice social distancing to avoid the spread of this deadly disease.

Stay Safe

Cheers!
