As the 7.9
M scale earthquake rocked Nepal in the mid-day of April 25 the aftermath was
devastating. This earthquake is largest in many decades which causes more than
8000 lives and about 15000 injured. It also destroyed hundreds of historical
sites and monuments. It also completely destroyed more than 200,000 houses and
partially damage more than 100,000 houses. Altogether 13,000 classes of about
950 schools are completely destroyed and more than 11,000 classes are partially
destroyed. It is a huge loss of lives and property.
Now, this
is a perfect time to take philanthropic action. The government of Nepal is
doing best as possible in helping people and distributing relief material but
still many victims are yet to be helped. The very remote locations of our
country and corruption from some officials have contributed to slow actions.
So, I suggest you all to help your community by individually raising funds. At
least one individual must stand up from each community to help their place and
community.
If you see
the faces of the victim and listen to their problems you will not be able to
hold your tears. All the efforts and money they put to build their houses was
in vain in seconds. Now they have nothing left but hope. They have hope that
humanity is still alive and people will support them. Now they need our help
more than ever.
I am Ram
Krishna from Aachhana, VDC, Dhading which is 150 km away from capital city
Kathmandu which is also one of the most damaged and remote area. I am standing
up to raise funds and relief material for my community where there are about 25
houses completely destroyed which make 200 people homeless. There is also high
chance of epidemic in this community due to dead animals killed by earthquake.
The vicinity has already been polluted and now people are lacking toilets too.
The only school providing education to our village was completely destroyed.
Whole village needs the medicine, drinking water, tents, toilet, and food which
are basic among others.
I want to
raise fund for my community which will be used for sustainability. The
funds received will be used in following way.
25
Temporary houses before monsoon
All the houses are completely destroyed in our
community so temporary houses are needed immediately because permanent houses
will take time to build. Each temporary houses will cost about $1000 which will
protect them from rain, wind, and diseases brought by monsoon. Temporary houses
are at the top priority because permanent houses will be very difficult to
build in monsoon.
25 Toilet
All the toilets are destroyed with the houses
so people are using open spaces for toilet which causes the fear of epidemic
and flu. So, toilet is must important to keep the community clean and for
people’s health. We plan to build 25 toilet in the community.
1 School
There was only one school in our community
providing education to whole village which is also badly damaged. To
reconstruct the school the estimation is about $50,000 which includes 70
classes, 1 library, 10 toilets, and computer lab.
1 Health
camp
The Village
also needs a health facility and regular check-up for both human and animal. So
we plan to establish a heath camp with 2 doctors and 5 nurses and 1 vet doctor.
The health camp will consist the basic medicine and also for epidemics. It will
cost about $15,000. This cost also includes the food and shelter for volunteer
medical personnel.
