Surviving Winter Appeal Nepal 2024Distribution Program Report – 30 January 2025
(Second Phase of Distribution)
Organized by: Al Ehsan Charitable Foundation Nepal
Introduction
With Nepal experiencing harsh winter conditions, many underprivileged families, including the elderly, widows, and children, are at high risk due to the extreme cold. The Surviving Winter Appeal Nepal 2024 was launched to provide life-saving warmth to those in need.
Following the success of the first distribution phase, Al Ehsan Charitable Foundation Nepal conducted a second round of distribution on 30 January 2025 to reach more vulnerable families. This report details the impact and progress of this initiative.
Phase 2: Blanket Distribution Summary

Total Beneficiaries: 10 families

Key Highlights:
The second phase of distribution targeted low-income families, elderly individuals, widows, and children who lacked adequate protection against the cold.

Families now have proper blankets to keep them warm.
Reduced health risks and hospital visits due to cold-related illnesses.
