Bhotekoshi (Nepal and Tibet) Flash Flood Relief Fund

About

A glacial lake outburst flood originating from the Chinese border from the Xizang/Tibet area caused significant flooding and mudslides in northern Nepal and at the border on August 26. More than 390 people have been confirmed dead and more than 1,400 are still reported missing. Homes, roads, bridges, power plants and other critical infrastructure have been destroyed or badly damaged. Multiple bridges and roads have been washed away leaving some of the affected communities extremely difficult to reach. Please note the organizations included in this Fund are subject to change as we learn more about needs on the ground.
