Dear Huyen,
I wanted to take a moment to provide you with an update about the work the American Red Cross has been able to do in Nepal thanks to the generosity of our donors like the Tu Bi Foundation. To date, the American Red Cross has raised over $35 million for the people of Nepal. We are so grateful for your generosity without which, our work would not be possible.
More than 36 American Red Cross disaster specialists have already deployed to Nepal to help with response activities ranging from emergency relief to distributing cash to victims to helping the country plan its recovery to providing IT and telecommunications support and remote mapping and information management giving relief workers on the ground the information they need to target where help is needed.
With monsoon season underway, people whose homes were destroyed are sleeping outside in the rain under tarps or in tents. The American Red Cross and the Red Cross global network are providing thousands of families with shelter toolkits – containing saws, nails, hammers, shovels and other items – as well as cash grants to help. In addition to sheltering materials, the American Red Cross continues to deliver vital relief items including hygiene kits, drinking water, blankets and health care supplies.
I’ve included below a link to view our Three Month Nepal Update so you can read more about the work the American Red Cross is doing in Nepal to recover and rebuild.

I wanted to be sure to share with you our Facebook post from yesterday that features Francis and her paper crane project. We were so excited to have the outlet to share Francis’ beautiful gesture, the meaning of the cranes, and the impact it had upon the children of Nepal. If you have a moment, please visit the link I’ve included below.
