The Journey of the Stretchers




Success! Purchasing inexpensive stretchers seems like a simple thing to do, but getting them to three remote villages in the Himalayan Mountains is a more complicated task!  Our village volunteer, Ramprasad, has been requesting stetchers for his neighbors to carry the ill or injured to a distant clinic. To accomplish this, our volunteers in Nepal had to purchase the stretchers from a shop in Kathmandu, fit them into a taxi to the bus station, get them secured on the roof of a bus to a city in Ghorka, and carry them by foot over bridges and up the rocky mountain paths to three remote villages in the Himalayan Mountains. What a journey!


Our Nepali Representative, Pinkey Malla, reports, “We successfully done our work! Villagers received stretchers safely are so so happy to received this precious gift and help from us. They are planning to put that stretchers at 3 village, one they will keep village called Chiche pani which in near to epicenter of earthquake, another will be at Pakhure Village and Voktini Village.”
