# Nepalearthquake
Thank you for your support.
We (Eoghan & Marc) will be cycling from London to Sete in the South East of France on the 20th of June. We will be cycling an average of 50 miles per day for approximately 16 days. The official distance is just shy of 800 miles.
We have chosen to dedicate our upcoming charity cycle to Abari.org. who are making temporary strong bamboo structure for the injured and displaced in the recent 7.8 magnititude earthquake which recently struck Nepal.
Please feel free to donate directly to Abari.org or through our donation page.
We will be sending any raised funds made made to our donation page directly to Abari.org each week.
We have been assured by people on the ground in Kathmandu that Abari.org are doing amazing work and seriously need the resources to continue.
This is what Abari say about themselves on their own fundraising page.
Taken directly from from Abari's fundraising page We did not anticipate the casualty be this big and set out a low target... People in Nepal still need your help and we appreciate further support. It is estimated 1 Million plus children are displaced and looking for shelter.
If you have contacts that can deliver tents from Europe, The Americas, Asia and Australia: Please get in touch as that is what we desperately need.
Live Update: 27th April.
We are busy organising the tents.
The design and material is modified so it's cheaper and quicker to build. Logistic is a nightmare as well as getting the materials. Nevertheless, we installed one huge tent in Chitwan medical college.
There are lots of victims from Lamjung who need shelter over there. Tomorrow we will get 10 canvas. We will leave to Gorkha the day after. We hope to install at least 10 canvas a day if everything works out.
Our village has been almost wiped out,” said Vim Tamang, a resident of Manglung, near the epicentre. “Most of our houses are either buried by landslide or damaged by shaking.” He said that half the village’s population was missing or dead. “All the villagers have gathered in the open area. We don’t know what to do.”
What is abari doing?
Abari.org is currently making tents and will donate the canvas and bamboo tents. These tents will be used for medical camps and temporary accommodation.
Abari will send these tent to the most affected areas- mainly Gorkha and Lamjung. The casualties in these places are unknown yet as it can take upto 2-3 days to get there. News is gradually coming out that 80% plus of the building are in ruins. It has been hard to get hold of people in Nepal, as the communication is not fully functional.
How can you support?
Donate: You can donate directly to Abari. These funds will be used to pay for creating tents and transporting them directly to the most affected areas.
I'm visiting Nepal: If you are going to Nepal, you can take survival items (medicine, sleeping bags, tents, water purifier etc.
I'm here in Nepal: Please volunteer with Abari, they are struggling with resources that can build/set up tents/ co-ordinate. Phone: +977- 9843112859, +977- 9851018652
