October 2024
In Kawasoti we had the joy of doing a medical camp for over 180 people. We were able to change the amounts of medicines people took or advised them on alternatives. Young and old came, the oldest being 90 and the youngest 9 months. We were able to hire 4 doctors and 2 nurses and Sagar, the pharmacist, to facilitate this needed project. We had a full pharmacy and were able to resolve quite a few issues. One of our doctors also had a PT background and we were able to instruct how to alleviate some physical issues. One lady in a wheelchair came who had had a stroke – the doctor went over a series of exercises that she could do every day to help her. We have refurbished this school in previous years which we found was overgrown, and so hired locals to trim trees, cut grass and prepare for the medical camp. All in all, a very successful help to some of the most vulnerable people in Nepal.
In another area, we spent 10 hrs one way on the road to reach a mudslide area. Three houses were lost as they slid down the hill. Four people lost their lives, and two bodies have never been recovered. The man in the picture with me lost both his son and grandson- they are the ones that have not been found. Our team carried the supplies into the village, supplying the entire area with needed food for a month. We will continue our efforts in this area.
Backpacks to be delivered to a very rural area school. These children are some of the poorest of the poor. Pictures will follow when we can complete the delivery. 
Mosquito nets for the village of Kalikatar we have been working in for the past 5 years. 
We purchased 300 plates for functions for “Prasansha Social Service Nepal” and the church that does much of the coordination for ChangeforHope.
We will also build two toilets for Kalikatar when we can reach there by the river as there is only 1 at the moment for the 100+ people who live there and so still use the forest!
At this time roads are still covered in mudslides in rural areas and so goats will be purchased and delivered in the next few months. Last APrils Medical camp was such a success with treating hundreds of patients and so we hope April of 2025 to do another. So much more to be done, this is a small sample. Thank you for your generosity.
