This is Mohan Pokharel. I was born and raised in Nepal. I came to United States in December 1999 as a college student. I started working as a statistical programmer in pharmaceutical industry about eight years ago. After living in many parts of the United States of America, I currently live in San Bruno, CA with my wife and a five years old daughter.

 

A devastating 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck near Nepal's capital city of Kathmandu on April 25th  2015. It has already claimed more than 6000 lives and many more are injured or unaccounted for. Most of the victims still lack food, water, medical supplies and other basic necessities. Aids are pouring in from different sources. Yet they are not enough and are not reaching the victims in many cases.

 

My parents still live in the suburbs of Kathmandu. They survived the earthquake without any damage to their physical health. There are many who didn’t have such luck. I feel obligated to do what I can to help them out and raising funds to buy basic supplies for children in need is the least I could do.

 

I plan to raise funds to buy food, clean water, milk, medical supplies and other items needed for children that are affected. Please help this cause by donating money or by spreading the word.
