As the level of devastation has become more apparent in the aftermath of the Nepal earthquake, we know that many organisations trying to get relief into stricken areas have been hindered by bureaucratic bottlenecks, logistics difficulties and not least rough terrain. This is why local groups and organisations are so important as they are already positioned exactly where they need to be to help best.
The Help Sherpas Help Nepal fund is one of several 'grass roots' funds set up through which we can directly send donations, and which guarantees 100% of your money will be spent on the urgent provision of clean drinking water, food, shelter and medical/sanitation services to those who need it most in Nepal. Tashi Sherpa, owner and founder of Sherpa Adventure Gear has directed the company's focus on helping directly by, amongst other things, using material destined for clothing instead to make shelters and blankets. Urgent help is still needed and hugely appreciated.
