Relief Distribution
After the arrival of our President Mr. Bishow Bhatta, several works has been done in our Nepal earthquake relief distribution program.
Funds received for this were special and separate from contributions received for the needs of the children at NECO Home but our older children helped in the program.
Relief Distribution in Gorkha
We tried to help the victims of the earthquake in various places of Gorkha district, where the earthquake did much damage. NECO Foundation and Neco Home held relief distribution program and health camp for three days (6th to 9th May 2015). Our president Mr. Bishow Bhatta did the captainship and formed the group of volunteers. There were 32 volunteers along with eight doctors, three nurses, two public health workers and two pharmacists. The senior kids of NECO Home also got involved in such a great social work.
We had terrible view of the villages destroyed by the earthquake and the faces that had lost their home along with their loved one. But there seem hope in the people to get rescued by scarcity and serious health problems. We distributed tents, foods, spare clothes, sanitary materials and medicines there. More than 550 villagers got their health checked up in the health camp set by us and most of the medicine we took there was really useful for them.
We hope that our work could help the victims in such a critical time that they are going through.
Relief distribution in Goldhunga, Kathmandu
We believe in love and help. That’s what our mission, to give help and support to the needy people. As to continue the previous deeds, we helped the people of Goldhunga yesterday. On the behalf of NECO Foundation, Our president Mr. Bishow Bhatta distributed foods for 300 families which are sufficient for 10 days. The food package consisted rice, lentils, sugar and other dry foods. We also distributed 15 big tents to the needy family who were sleeping in open sky. NECO Home also lies in Goldhunga which is 3km from the city center. But the place and the victims of earthquake are unseen by the government or other organization in the matter of relief distribution. We tried our best to provide food to the very poor and helpless families as much as we could. People were very thankful towards NECO.
