News from Manoj - Headmaster of the Noble School

Dear Keith,

Today we distributed all the stuff that we have brought. They are really very pleased to have all the stuff. They thanked you also. We also give some amount to our students to have new dresses for them and buy necessary items.

Thank you Keith and RNV team very much for your quick help. Your help makes their life easier. We are trying to help some other people also who have nothing to eat. I will let you know later

Deeds Not Words

Res Non Verba

How better to illustrate the meaning of our charity, by the actions of the community we call our friends. Aid bags arriving at the leprosy colony, Bikash and his family leading the distribution, which has been organised by Mike Lock and his team. Our thanks to those friends in Nepal that are able to act in times of need to support the community we cherish so much.

We are so happy to have been able to support this effort financially and thank all the donors who have contributed.

WHAT CAN WE DO?

We feel so far away at times like this and knowing what to do has been hard to decide. RNV Nepal is here for the long term, so we are working on two main areas.

For short term emergency aid we are supporting our friends in Nepal. They are the experts and they know what the needs are of the people, now. Therefore, financial support will be given to those organisations we know well to support the community in the Kohkana district of southern Kathmandu.

In the long term we will be raising funds to assist the communities in rebuilding and recovering from yet another natural disaster.

News on our friends

Tulsi Gyawali

Tulsi and his team at Nepal Sanctuary Treks are safe. Situated further north, in Kathmandu, Tulsi has said that he has not been badly impacted. He will be working with his teams to support the many groups that he is involved in around Nepal.

Peace Garden School

On higher ground the Peace Garden School has withstood the recent deluge. Arjun the Headmaster is leading a response to support the surrounding community, many of whom have lost homes and livelihoods.

Bikash, Jyoti and the Leprosy Colony

Jyoti now lives in the UK, working in Coventry Hosptial, she is clearly safe but worried. Bikash has contacted saying that the people at the Leprosy Colony are, in the main, safe but that much damage has been caused, loss of livelihoods and difficult and severe damage to infrastructure may casue secondary problems after the floods have receeded.

Noble School Classroom

Manoj, Headmaster of the Noble School, has sent news that he is safe but the Noble School struggles with floodwater in normal conditions. We await further news but his initial contact suggested significant damage to the school and surrounding area.

Annandit Charity Centre

Shusma has contacted us to say they are safe and their buildings have not been affected. They are working hard to provide emergency aid for their communities.
