News from Nepal: A special request

Yubaraj has told us that his younger brother Sukdev recently fell from a tree and broke his arm in three places. Yubaraj's mother borrowed money -- 5,000 Rs. or $77 -- to have his arm set and placed in a cast. The person who loaned her the the money wants to be repaid, now. Yubaraj asked whether we could help with this.

We explained that we weren't prepared to do that, that we have to be really careful about managing the money we've collected so it's enough to support Yubaraj's education like we've promised everyone who contributed.

We told Yubaraj that what we could do was forward his request to all of you, in hopes that one or several of you would like to help his mother with this debt. If that's something you can do, please add a note to your GiveMeaning donation to let us know it's for this purpose and we'll post updates here about what we've been able to do to help his family with this.

Thank you!
