Plan International had distributed some food and tents yesterday(16th May) but that is not sufficient, the local contact is now in Kathmandu and is in attempts to contact the people there to get an update. He will inform us regarding the same.

According to the local contact, the food supply is not sufficient and the tarpalines are too small in size. At least 50 families are in desperate need of shelter currently. There is also a urgent need for volunteers to clear the rubble and take out food and other stuff from the destroyed houses, especially the animal fodder. Please contact Mr Santosh at 9841499388 for more information.
