Who we are
We are CU students working to raise monetary funds for ongoing Nepal earthquake relief efforts and to ensure that this tragedy and need for aid do not fade from the headlines.
- We see the devastation happening in Nepal and refuse to sit idly by as thousands have died, and thousands more struggle to find the means to rebuild all that was lost.
- We may have loved ones, friends and family members, who live in or care about Nepal. We want to ensure they do not feel alone, and that their stories are elevated and shared far and wide.
- We may have no direct personal ties to Nepal, but we do have personal ties to everyone affected by this disaster through our shared humanity.
Our goals

- We encourage people to donate to Global Giving's Nepal Earthquake Relief Fund.
- All donations to this fund will support earthquake recovery and relief efforts in Nepal. Initially, the fund will help first responders meet survivors' immediate needs for food, fuel, clean water, hygiene products, and shelter. Once initial relief work is complete, this fund will transition to support longer-term recovery efforts run by local, vetted local organizations.
- We believe that organizations that are deeply-rooted in local communities are often in the best position to provide long-term support for disaster victims. By funding the relief efforts of local organizations, donations to this fund have the potential to build stronger disaster-response capacity so that these organizations are better equipped to face future disasters. GlobalGiving will post reports about how funds have been used and will email these reports to donors and subscribers.
