Dear Community Members,
We are all aware of the ongoing dire situation in Nepal due to COVID. As Indiana Nepali Community have done in the past during such crises as Earthquake 2015, we will need to once again get together to help our brothers and sisters back home in these unprecedented times. The action we take together as a community will literally save lives. So please join this collaborative effort of the Nepalese Association of Indiana (NAI) & Non-Resident Nepali Association - Indiana Chapter and donate funds to help fight COVID in Nepal. How can you donate the funds?
Please write Nepal COVID Donation in the Check & Zelle Memo. How will the collected funds be utilized? - Currently, we have identified two main options and still working through the details. The options are; 1. Working with HTCI temple Indiana to procure Oxygen Concentrators. If procured, the concentrators will be shipped to Nepal & we will work with organizations like Health Foundation Nepal (HFN) or National Innovation Center (NIC) to see where they can be best used. 2. If unable to procure Oxygen Concentrators or the remainder of the funds, it will be directly donated to National Innovation Center (NIC) led by Mahabir Pun. They have been fighting on the ground since the beginning of the pandemic. Please find how NIC is fighting COVID here; https://nicnepal.org/news-and-publications/our-fight-against-covid-19 Because time is of the essence, we wanted to start the fundraising campaign while we work together with members of our community to work out the details. Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions or any other ideas. This is our collaborative effort and any/all ideas are welcome. Lastly, we would like to assure the members of our community that every penny donated will be used for the fight against COVID. We will be transparent as always and keep you updated throughout the process. *We will include your name and donation in excel a spreadsheet that we will make public. Please write “Remain Anonymous” in the memo if you would like to remain Anonymous.* -Nepalese Association of Indiana (NAI) & Non-Resident Nepali Association (NRNA)- Indiana Chapter ***APPEAL TO ALL COMMUNITY MEMBERS***
