Recently, a massive earthquake of a magnitude 7.9 struck Nepal. In Gorkha district (the epicenter of the earthquake), we also lost our family home but luckily our families survived. It’s difficult to explain the extent of the damage but this was a particularly large earthquake and thousands of people died and lost their homes.
There are several organisations actively providing relief to families, but mainly in Kathmandu. At this time of tragedy, communities around the world are doing whatever possible to reach the villages with emergency supplies. Unfortunately, in remote villages, many schools have fallen and thousands of children don't have a school to go to.
We are raising fund so we could help rebuild at least one of the schools that has been destroyed by the earthquake. We would like to support Janasakti Primary School in Arutar, Gorkha, where my wife studied as a child.
We ran three half marathon in 2015. This year, the plan so far:
With the generous help from our friends and families, so far we have raised £1200. We will ensure every penny donated here will directly go to the school. Will you please join us in supporting our school in need?
You can either donate with Paypal or if you don’t have a PayPal account, you can donate using your credit card or bank account. Your kind support will be really appreciated. If you are interested in detail about our fund raising activities and if you want to find out how the donations are being collected and where we are helping with your help, please visit this open Facebook group.
Thank you very much.
