Food parcels | Covid pandemic

July 6, 2020

While life here is slowly returning to normal, the situation in Nepal is very different.

For months, people have been unable to work, stuck in lockdown. Many migrant workers cannot return to their families, and the women at home have no money for food.

Therefore, we would like to put together food packages for families together with Narayan, in order to help at least a few.

 

Donate a food package to a family in Nepal for 37 CHF!

One package costs approximately $38 - contains 30kg of rice, lentils, oil and salt - and would keep the family afloat for 1.5 - 2 months.

We would be very grateful for your support!

This time Narayan wants to help his neighbors in Kathmandu.

Fortunately, the residents of Bhumesthan are not as badly affected by the lockdown. Since they are largely self-sufficient, they do not lack food.

July 1, 2020

We asked for support via Facebook & WhatsApp and are delighted to be able to send another decent amount of money in aid.

July 11, 2020

Today we transferred $1920 to Narayan.
Since it was much more money than we initially thought, packages can now also be distributed to families where the man is at home but has no income.

July 19, 2020

Narayan was able to use the money to put together 51 food packages and distribute them to families in need.
We also included soap in the packages, as this is especially important right now and very few people can afford it.

August 20, 2020

Since Narayan knows of even more families in need and further donations arrived last month, we were able to transfer another $600.

July 7, 2021

Narayan informed us that some of his neighbors are in very bad shape, so we transferred another 280.00 CHF.
