Today,15 pallets of Water Survival Box aid has been collected from our warehouse in the UK for a flight to Kathmandu. Kathmandu is the capital and most populous city of Nepal. The boxes are due to arrive on Thursday and be distribution by Rotary in country. For background, on the 26 to 28 September 2024, Nepal was struck by exceptional late monsoon rainfall, inducing landslides and flooding across a wide swathe of the country. The rescue operation is still ongoing, but news reports indicate that the official loss of life is 217 people, with a further 28 people still listed as missing. Thank you for supporting Water Survival Box. Without your help we would not be able to make this shipment possible.
