Fundraising event to support Nepal flood relief
Hawaii's Nepalese community is holding a fundraiser tonight to help families in Nepal hit by deadly flooding and landslides — a small piece of good news for a country still reeling from the disaster.
- The Society of Nepalese in Hawaii is hosting the event at Palolo Hongwanji in Honolulu this evening.
- Admission and food are free, with donations welcome.
- Children will perform throughout the night to share Nepali culture.
- All money raised goes to Nepal's Prime Minister's Disaster Relief Fund for families affected by the flooding and landslides.
Outlook: Nepal's recovery from the floods will depend on outside help like this, so expect more diaspora relief drives in the weeks ahead.
