Background of activities :
Disaster response and relief is one of the major programs of VIN.Many parts of the communities are destroyed to dust and many families lost their houses and properties in 2015 earthquake. This massive earthquake not only left people poor but many people are now homeless and living in very cold and small temporary shelters. This tragic moment made VIN realize that reconstruction of houses of poor families, public properties, religious temples, and cultural heritage sites would be one of the best ideas to support the community people.
After the devastating earthquake of 25th April, 2015, the situation in Nepal is desperate! VIN has been continuously involved in the Relief work. VIN is helping poor and needy people to reconstruct their earthquake resistance homes. VIN will be working until the reconstruction completes in our earthquake affected communities.
