Despite advanced planning for such an event, the people of Nepal are reeling from damage in the aftermath of a massive 7.8-magnitude earthquake that struck Kathmandu Valley April 25. As the death toll rises, aftershocks hinder rescue efforts and cause more uncertainty. IMB can confirm that all personnel in South Asia are safe, and some are now involved in relief efforts in Nepal.
Baptist Global Response, the Southern Baptist humanitarian organization with which IMB partners, released $50,000 for initial relief efforts in the aftermath of Nepal’s massive earthquake. This quick response provides hurting people with basic survival needs like water, shelter, food and healthcare. Your donations to BGR’s Nepal Earthquake Response Fund will provide continued emergency response as needs rise in the disaster area.
Pray for the people of Nepal and those who are providing relief.
