Aid for the People of Nepal:
Our
thoughts and prayers are with the people of
Nepal. On April 25th, the country experienced
a destructive 7.8 magnitude earthquake. This
natural disaster has caused over 5,000 deaths
and 6,500 injuries, and many are still reported missing. The tremor was felt as far as India
and triggered an avalanche on nearby Mount
Everest. The amount of destruction is overwhelming, and those affected are struggling
for food, water and shelter. DEVELOPMENT AND
PEACE is working with Caritas Nepal and
others Caritas members to provide aid to the
population. You can contribute to these much
-needed
relief
efforts
by
donating
to DEVELOPMENT AND PEACE. Your contribution will be matched by the Canadian
Government until May 25th, 2015. You can
make a donation online at www.devp.org; by
phone at 1 888 664-3387; or by sending a
cheque made out to DEVELOPMENT AND
PEACE (please indicate Nepal Earthquake) to :
DEVELOPMENT AND PEACE, 1425 René-Lévesque
Blvd. West 3rd Floor, Montreal QC H3G 1T7.
Thank you for your generosity and prayers for
the people of Nepal.
