Nepal recovery

Pinkey and Gaetri (health worker from Nuwakot)
There is no rest in sight for Pinkey and our Soyamsabika health workers in Nepal.  Many people are living in tents and struggling day-to-day just to find food and survive.  Many are also suffering from diarrhea due to the polluted water.  Pinkey said she and her husband, Binod, are planning to visit the villages of Deurali, Tupche, and Dumre by motor bike this week "to meet villagers to give sympathy and share our pain [with] each other."  HealthEd Connect supplies that have been distributed to date include:

296 bags of rice (66 lbs each)
30 tents
Electrolyte packets
Tylenol
Antibiotic ointments
