Flood Response 2026

Immediate relief was only the beginning.

We began with a $25,000 emergency relief initiative to deliver urgent help to families affected by the devastating floods.

That work is underway, and our response is growing with the needs we are seeing on the ground.

Our team is staying close to affected families, schools, local communities and government partners to identify what comes next: continued support for survivors and children's education, essential infrastructure, and longer-term recovery.

Multiple campaigns. One mission: help families recover and rebuild.

What has happened

These are not just numbers.

Every person missing or lost belongs to a family that is waiting, searching, and hoping.

A devastating flood near the Nepal–Tibet border has caused severe destruction in Rasuwa and in communities downstream along the Bhote Koshi and Trishuli rivers. Roads and bridges have been washed away, homes have been destroyed, infrastructure has been badly damaged, and many families have lost loved ones, homes and livelihoods.

As rescue efforts continue, at least 95 people have been reported dead and hundreds more remain missing or out of contact. The situation is still developing, and the true extent of the damage may not be known for some time.

How the money moves

We account for every nail

Funds are never released in one lump. They move in stages, gated on receipts from the field, so a gift is traceable from the card to a family’s front door.

  1. 40%

    Released against an estimate

    The Nepal country director and board submit a monthly estimate. Forty per cent of it is transferred and is available immediately.

  2. ✓

    Receipts checked

    When between half and four fifths of that money is spent, the Nepal team must send receipts and a full expense breakdown to the US office.

  3. 30%

    Released in two further tranches

    The balance follows in two chunks of 30 per cent, each verified against real spend.

Minimal admin cost.
Straight to the people.

Our board and volunteers take no salary, and we hold administrative costs below 15 per cent. In Nepal no money moves without three independent signatures, and spending is recorded to the granular detail, down to a single nail or brick.

What has been given to this appeal, and what has been spent from it, is published as it is reconciled.
