Dear Friends,
First of all, NECO children would like to extend their love and greetings to all of you for the upcoming holiday season.
In anticipation of this, NECO Foundation announces a fundraiser to be held on Sunday, December 6th at 5:30 PM at the Los Altos Youth Center at 1 North San Antonio Road, Los Altos, California.
Now we understand that most of our supporters do not live in the area to participate, but we nevertheless want to inform you of our ongoing fund raising efforts, as well as joining us in this effort.
As you know, most of NECO Home’s facilities, including housing for boys and girls, were severely damaged in the earthquake in April 2015. With the help of many generous donors, we have built a new dormitory, repaired common areas and done as much as possible for the children. However, we have ways to go to finish the work and make the new or refurbished facilities habitable for the children. We need bathrooms, floors, painting, beds and furniture for these facilities.
Toward this end NECO Foundation is holding this fundraiser to finish the work. There will be a presentation by NECO president Bishow Bhatta regarding the situation of the children and the facilities in Nepal, along with authentic Nepalese dinner and performances.
If you are able… and especially looking forward to our Christmas holiday season… your early, much needed contributions can be made online at www.necofoundation.org/donate. If you wish to earmark your donation for certain purchases for the children, email us here to provide us with your donation amount and how it should be spent. We will send you photos of your gift.
With kind thanks and love,
NECO Staff and Children
