Why I Support #WeHelpNepal
The 7.9 earthquake that rocked Nepal has shocked the world with its devastating images in the capital. Unfortunately, most of the damage is outside Kathmandu and rebuilding will be a long-term battle.
Whether you call Nepal your home, fell in love with the country on a visit, or have only seen pictures from afar, please consider donating to a grassroots, corruption free use that will efficiently use your money. My brother and friends are seeing the immediate relief efforts from this cause.
Thank you - much love and appreciation!

ABOUT OUR CAMPAIGN
We are not a traditional disaster relief organization.
We Help Nepal is network of artists, business owners, doctors, teachers and development workers who have lived or are currently living in Nepal. We are united by our mutual connection to Nepal and our commitment to alternative development models.
Our expertise comes from our awareness of the Nepali social and political landscape, and our connections to local organizations that are beneath the international radar.
The recent earthquake was a natural disaster intensified by the man-made forces of rapid development, poverty, and conflict driven displacement. This fund will support immediate earthquake relief and rebuilding efforts rooted in a philosophy of relief to self-reliance, disaster to sustainable development.
We recognize that in this tragedy there are seeds of hope that will sprout from the rubble.
