Boys carry the emergency kits we distributed in their small village of Kavresthali, on the outskirts of Kathmandu. It is one of several villages we’ve reached in #Nepal that had not yet received any assistance after the April 25 earthquake. Because we are procuring some supplies locally, we were able to provide sleeping mats that the villagers requested, in addition to food, clothing, and water purification supplies.

NEPAL, Kathmandu : A Nepalese Hindu devotee prepares to perform a mourning ritual at the Pashupatinath temple in Kathmandu on May 7, 2015. The 7.8 magnitude earthquake which struck the Himalayan nation on April 25, 2015, has had a devastating impact on the economy of Nepal where tourism attracted almost 800,000 foreign visitors in 2013 – many of them climbers heading straight to Mount Everest but also less adventurous tourists seeking the rich cultural history of Kathmandu.

Waiting for her turn.

After giving some food and medical aid. We started giving out clothes. We were shouting out to the locals to stand in queue but they were not following what we were saying. They’re just to excited to be getting the clothes. It was like Dashain for some. #itoweteam #jolkhu

"Tens of thousands of young women from regions devastated by the earthquake in Nepal are being targeted by human traffickers supplying a network of brothels across south Asia."

Traffickers are posing as rescue workers in order to gain the trust of and deceive rural communities. Even before the earthquake, 10,000-12,000 girls a year are trafficked from Nepal.
