It was this week last year that Nepal was rocked by massive 7.8 earthquake.
This 7.8 earthquakes destroyed more than 500,000 buildings and killed almost 9,000 people. The Nepalese government has estimated 500,000 families were left homeless.
Small non-profits like us are the driving force in rebuilding effort. Small non-profits are able to move quickly and show progress in helping people or building shelter, clean drinking water systems or sanitation system. There is no bureaucracy.
We have helped over 20,000 people and provided over 2.2 million meals in 12 villages.
We have distributed tents, mattresses, blankets, shoes, clothes, solar lamps, medical supplies and the list go on.
Our young girls who trained have lost their sewing machines and their homes.
I want to give huge thanks to people who have made it possible. Without your help generous help, it wouldn't have been possible. Together we have accomplished so much!
You could still help! In number of villages we are the only one who is providing clean drinking water, sanitation system, distributing clothes, shoes and other materials.
Thank you!
