SHEP, an NGO based in Cork and Sahakarmi Samaj an NGO based in Nepal, have been International Learning Partners since 2007, both with a focus on personal and social empowerment and transformation through facilitation and group work.
Normally at this time Sahakarmi would be carrying out its extensive community development work across Western Nepal, with some of the most marginalised people in society. However the COVID pandemic emergency has put a halt to much of this and currently Sahakarmi's field and office teams are working alongside local government on COVID relief and education.
The situation in Nepal is bad. As bad as India. It is the situation we have all feared during the pandemic - a lack of hospital beds of oxygen and ICU. Most people with COVID are having to isolate at home without basic medical supplies to protect themselves and their families.
We want to help Sahakarmi Samaj deliver 150 Covid Home Care Kits to vulnerable households.
€30 will cover the cost of one COVID Home Care Kit containing :
medicines, masks, sanitiser, oximeter, foodstuffs and a jar of Horlicks (a treat for the children)
SHEP'S Mission Statement
In solidarity and partnership with others we seek to foster the well-being of people, families, communities and the wider world and to contribute to building a healthy, loving, socially-just and sustainable way of living.
