Our partnership with World Vision and Medical Teams International 

The 7.8 magnitude earthquake was the worst earthquake to hit Nepal in 80 years, and devastated central Nepal near Kathmandu. Over 8,000 people have died and thousands are in need of emergency medical care.

In the wake of such a massive earthquake, there was an urgent need to respond quickly to keep the death toll from rising further as hospitals were overwhelmed. This is why we worked with local partners to provide lifesaving medical care. In addition to medical care, we came  alongside Nepalese families to ensure they had access to the basics like: food, water, and shelter.

Our partners’ commitment was that long after the news crews have left Nepal, they would still be working with their partners and the local communities to invest in the rebuilding and long-term development of the region.
