Nepal Fundraising Update
26 May 2020
Thank you for your support to date and I thought I should update you on what has happened with your donations. Days before we went into lockdown, Country Village preschool held a bike a thon which all the children enjoyed and added to our fundraising. Nepal is still under strict lock down so we are holding the funds until schools open again and we will then forward them for the teacher. The majority of Nepalese are facing a very difficult time, being unable to work there is no income and they don't have government support or social services. This years was the big 2020 year of tourism in Nepal and the Covid crisis has hit very hard. We are sending donations (separate to our frundraising) to purchase rice and lentils which are the main food staples. I know there are many, many people in New Zealand needing support at the moment but if you feel you could help a Nepalese family with a small donation it will all add up and be most appreciated.
