Dear Everyone,
In light of all of you who want to extend your hands for help by donating money, I am starting this fundraising campaign to help people directly affected by the earthquake. The next few months are going to be important.
From the time the earthquake hit till the time I am starting this campaign, I have visited several earthquake affected areas in and around Kathmandu. I have also collected stories which I will be sharing. The most need I see is for the aftermath of this earthquake. Rebuilding and helping people recover from loss of property and loved ones. The fund will collected will be used to distribute supplies to the people who are directly affected, over a period of time. These will range from water, food, medicines, blankets. Also to list down everything would be a difficult task right now as help offered will also be need-based and subject to requirement.
Here is the link. https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/stories-of-nepal-earthquake-relief-fund/x/9682288
I think it is best that I collaborate with a local NGO/INGO who have experience in disaster relief to make sure the raised fund reaches the affected people/families.
Part of the money will be used to donate supplies to people I meet and who are directly affected by the earthquake. Updates will also be provided through the Stories Of Nepal Facebook page and the website.
I would like to thank everyone. Also, I request you to share the link and help this campaign reach more people. Together we can make a difference.
