Ram Narayan, Shankar and Sunita are the team in Nepal to respond to the flood victims. They have been working non-stop in cooperation with individuals and organisations to ensure that everyone had something to eat and somewhere to sleep in ten surrounding villages from Bhagawatpur panchayat where our partner organisation is based.
The current situation of the flood victims as I have received from the team:
- At least 90% people affected by the floods have returned to their home from the temporary tent that was put up along the canals and roads
- Even though their home is not safe they prefer that way and have to protect the remaining.
- At least 50% of the families affected by the floods have started to cook meal in their own home.
- At leat 25% of the families have taken a loan to begin their life from a private lender at very high interest rates (48% or above)
- Most of the families walk a long way to collect clean water for cooking and drinking
- None of the families have an electricity in their home
- Almost all the families have a mosquito net, a hand tourch and some clothing
- Now, the families need construction materials to rebuild their home, clean water and something to rebuild a livelihood on
- NVF team is committed to this and we need your support. Please spread the word and donate generously.
