Flash Flood in Nepal
Nepalmed e.V. is ready to help.
We are in close contact with our local partners. They are organising emergency aid in collaboration with the Nepalese army. We will provide emergency aid where it is needed most, whether through medical care, support for affected hospitals, or assistance with reconstruction.
We plan to distribute:
- Basic food supplies and drinking water for families who have lost everything
- Emergency shelter—tents, tarps, and blankets for the coming, often chilly nights in the mountains
- Hygiene supplies to prevent disease in the overcrowded emergency camps
Every donation counts.
With your help, we can respond quickly and without red tape wherever the need is greatest.
Thank you very much for thinking of the people in Nepal during this difficult time.
Your Nepalmed-Team
