"The Himalayan nation has a fraction of India’s population – and of its health resources – but its weekly coronavirus cases and deaths are among the highest in the world on a per capita basis. Nepal has recorded roughly 163 cases per 100,000 people over the last week, according to World Health Organization figures.

| We at NSP Canada are devastated to hear about the Covid19 crisis in Nepal and that it has reached the mountainous villages in Kavre. The Kavre villages, that we support, are remote. Medical assistance in the villages is rare. The alternative is walking hours, away from home to get help. Our team in Nepal has responded quickly, risking their own health to distribute packs of vitamins in hopes of building immunity. This help is funded by you, our supporters and we appreciate your help. We thank you! NSP Canada Volunteer Team, Fran, Betty, David, Terri, Salina, and Karin Click here to donate.
