Nepal villagers need support 3 years after the earthquakes

It’s now more than 3 years since the devastating earthquakes in Nepal smashed homes, lives and livelihoods. And our funds are drying up.

Since 2017 we have helped 58 families to rebuild their homes by providing a financial subsidy via village committees, and training for local construction teams.

There are still 25 families to go and recently, TT’s project partner Healthabitat OS has advised it is not a fund raising organisation. Financial help is desperately needed to get these people safely housed.

If you or anyone is able to assist, the village families will be truly grateful. Donations in Australia are tax deductible.

Fading eastern light over western NSW plains on re-entry to Sydney.

Tough visit to Nepal this time. Struggling economy, massive inflation, increasing suicide rates, fewer and fewer jobs. Small wonder the drain of young people coursing out of the country, mainly aged 18-30 years, continues to grow. On average 3-4000 per day.

Villages are emptying. Schools are closing due to falling numbers of students. Families are breaking up, leaving the parents to grow into either a lonely retirement in Nepal or face moving to another country where they are with their kids and grandkids but without their daily neighbours and local community.

It’s great to see so many beautiful Nepalese working and helping in Australia and other countries, and seeking opportunities they can’t find in their home country but the social, structural and political fracturing back in Nepal is deepening. The next few years will be very interesting.

Namaste!!🙏🏽 🙏🏽
