🚨 Urgent Update from Nepal 🚨 Severe flooding and landslides, triggered by relentless rainfall, have devastated parts of Nepal, including Kathmandu, claiming the lives of at least 66 people. Over 3,000 individuals have been rescued as security forces continue their rescue efforts across the country. With 69 people still missing and critical infrastructure damaged, including major highways, the situation remains dire. We will provide updates as we gather more information from our team on the ground across Nepal. Our thoughts are with all those affected.

In May, our initiative began in Jajarkot, the district worst hit by the 2023 earthquake. It takes a year to establish our initiative in a new district, involving meetings with local Palika officials, workforce development, and setting up data systems, paving the way for successful program execution. We collaborate with stakeholders to repair health facilities and support expectant mothers and children. #Jajarkot #OneHeartWorldwide
