[ ‘SHARE’ Jan-Feb 2016 ] STEP INTO THE WORLD
Thanks to many churches in Hong Kong, our long time supporters, and participants of Barefoot Walk that because of your generous donations, CEDAR and our partners can provide timely relief to over 3,900 affected households in Nepal after the April massive earthquake. These are what were provided:
- Basic materials (e.g. food, clean water, tents and blankets)
- Zinc sheets and materials to repair and enforce temporary shelters before the rainy season
- School tables and chairs
At the reconstruction stage, CEDAR is supporting our partners to re-build the communities by:
- Enabling resumption of agriculture and animal husbandry, including giving small loans to farmers so they can start over
- Building temporary houses
- Rebuilding sanitation and social infrastructure, providing basic medical services
- Providing schooling materials, such as uniforms, stationery and recreation facilities
- Giving disaster management training and mobilising volunteers on disaster prevention and relief
Further, CEDAR is sponsoring our partners to develop women’s skills and combat child trafficking by:
- Setting up women’s and children’s groups to enhance life skills and to raise awareness of human trafficking
- Giving families livelihood support and facilitating women’s business groups to improve livelihood
- Educating and raising awareness of community leaders and parents on prevention of human trafficking
- Placing children vulnerable to human trafficking in children homes and providing education to them
We sincerely invite you to consider making a long-term regular donation to support “Nepal’s community development” so that their lives can be continually improved.
