Emergency Support for RURAL NEPAL
Donation protected
Thank you ALL SO MUCH for your donations and generosity, we have done so much with your funds already (please check updates for details) and there is so much more help needed, we are in communication with other local initiatives currently coordinating and making sure the rignt supplies and aid go to where they are needed. I have increased our funding goal from our initial amount since THANKS TO YOU we are able to keep working and getting more help to more people. PLEASE if you can keep sharing this, so we can keep helping.
Rural Nepal DESPERATELY NEEDS HELP right now. The epi-center of the earthquakes was in the Gorkha region of Nepal where there are cities, towns and villages who have been cut off by road since the quakes and VERY little aid has got through so far, only today, 2 days after the biggest quake is some aid making its way through with help of the army to get past the landslides on the roads.
This campaign is a local effort from our team at Peace Eye Guesthouse in Pokhara to get supplies through. Peace Eye is a family run guesthouse that is second home to many guests, a group of us have been inspired by the hotel owner, Rishi Poudel, who works between Nepali and the UK, for his immediate and exceptional dedication, care and devotion to all effected by the earthquakes. After having been ill in Kathmandu last week, Rishi arrived back at his guesthouse just before the earthquakes, and put his ALL into ensuring the wellbeing of his guests, setting up beds for us downstairs and staying up all night to warn us of more shakes. As soon as he felt things were secure here, Rishi and some of his family and friends quickly gathered supplies and set off to provide aid and help. We, a team of 6 international peace-eye guests, have been in regular contact with them over the last 4 days supporting their efforts from this relitavely safe and not too effected town of Pokhara, responding to their needs and sending the required aid.
The hotel family, staff and several guests, currently myself, are working together on this effort. We have spent the past two days regularly having to run out onto the streets because of countless earthquakes, to our great fortune the area we are in has had very little damage and now that quakes have settled here we have been getting together to bring support to areas less fortunate.
We initially put together an initial £1000 worth of basic supplies:food, medication and sleeping bags etc and several of our team have gone in a vehicle towards the rural Gorkha, to deliver them and offer their hands in support, they will camp there for an initial 5 days and will keep in contact with us letting us know whats needed so we can use these funds for exactly the right things. We can withdraw funds at anytime using this fantastic website, which means we dont have to delay in getting aid to where its needed.
In the following days&then weeks,the support here is going directly towards these rural areas that so far have had barely any aid and are in desperately in need. An early estimate is that 80% of these unreached towns and villages are in ruin. Please donate if you can.
