Our Nepal contact, Surendra Bikram Prajapati, a charter Member of Rotary Club of Madhyapur, mentioned that school children had lost their school books, and uniforms etc.

Surendra said “At the moment, we are focusing on assisting some of our students and their families who were severely affected by the recent flooding. Approximately 250 students have lost their books, stationery, and school uniforms, while many families are in need of food and clothing. Any help during this critical time would be greatly appreciated and would provide significant relief to the victims. We are doing our best to support the flood victims in the Thimi and Bhaktapur areas.”

We are raising funds to help with the purchase of school books and uniforms. We would appreciate if you can help. Our Charity account is, Bendigo Bank:
