Good Morning Gloucester

I am currently in Kathmandu, Nepal, scene of a devastating series of over 100 earthquakes which began on  April  25th, this year.  This Himalayan nation, around the size of Tennessee, wedged between Tibet and India, is home of many of the worlds tallest mountains and is one of the world’s poorest countries.  The economy has been crippled, over 9000 people were killed and there is much suffering in the villages worst hit by this event.  As winter approaches and temperatures fall to freezing, hundreds of thousands of people are in need of warmth as they survive in temporary and often minimal  housing.

On my second day here I found an English man who is doing various social programs for villages here, and have decided to back him in his efforts to provide blankets for families.  I have checked him out, he is legit and all of the funds I raise will go 100% to blankets, no administrative costs.  Many people have lost everything, all their possessions as well as homes.  The blankets will allow for comfort and warmth during the fast approaching Himalayan winter.

If you would like to donate, please send checks payable to Carol Seeckts, 10 Laurel Ct, Acton, MA 01720.  She will deposit the money into my account and I will then access it here in Nepal.  I ask that if you are sending a donation (ANY amount is welcome!) PLEASE send me an email at BrendaMalloy@hotmail.com so that I know the funds are coming.   I leave on November 20 and will front the money until your check gets deposited.

I am not a non profit, so donations are not tax deductable.  Thank you Joey for making such a platform available and EJ for making this post for me.

Thank you in advance for your generosity and thoughtfulness.  A little goes a long way in this poor country.

PEACE!
Brenda
