A huge earthquake is long overdue in Nepal. We face a race against time to protect our brave Gurkha veterans.
Will you help us take preemptive action? To rebuild homes that will keep our veterans and widows as safe as possible.
Together we can rebuild
As a reminder of the difference we can make, you only have to look at the story of Baldhan and Budhini.
This husband and wife found themselves in a terrible situation when an earthquake totally destroyed their home in Barpak, the epicentre of the 2015 quake. You may remember how our staff worked tirelessly to build a new earthquake-resilient home for the couple to live in. Eventually, they were among the very first people to move into their new accommodation.
Studying the structural weaknesses in traditional homes like the one Baldhan and Budhini used to live in has taught us so much – informing the design of a new era of homes that you can help us build by making a donation today.
