Devastating flash floods and mudslides have swept through Nepal, leaving widespread destruction and claiming hundreds of lives. Many people remain missing as search and rescue efforts continue. Homes, roads, bridges, and critical infrastructure have been destroyed, leaving communities cut off and families facing tremendous loss.
Approximately 93,000 people may have been affected by the disaster, including thousands of children urgently needing food, clean water, healthcare, and other basic necessities. Schools and health facilities have been destroyed or severely damaged, while more than 80 bridges and miles of roads have been washed away, making it incredibly difficult to reach families in some of the hardest-hit mountainous communities.
Mercy Chefs Global already has ongoing daily feeding programs in Nepal, and we are working closely with our local partners to respond to the growing needs. Right now, we are moving local resources and providing additional financial support to help reach families impacted by the flooding.
Mercy Chefs Global team members are also traveling to Nepal to assist our local partners on the ground and help assess what additional resources will be needed in the days ahead.
Please join us in praying for the people of Nepal, especially those who have lost loved ones, families facing unimaginable loss, and the first responders and local partners working tirelessly to reach those in need. ❤🙏
