This photo was taken in 2018, but it is worth noting that after the earthquake in Nepal in 2015, there is still work to be done, there is still rubble, there is still trauma, there is still economic hardship. We continue to remember the lives of people who can not afford lockdown, families that will go hungry, business that will close. We remember and we pray and we continue to invite you all to join us in seeking out the needs of not only this country, but countless communities around the world. Let us never forget that we can always live generously, with kindness and love and compassion for those who are struggling with layer upon layer of grief, hardship, and uncertainty. This is bigger than all of us, but then again—love is bigger than all of us ❤️ . . #covid19 #lockdown #nepalearthquake #togetherwepray #liveforlove #nepalcharity #hopefornepal #globalcommunity #canadiancharity #nepalearthquake2015may12

Today, if you were lucky enough to be on a bus, winding up a road, somewhere between Kathmandu and Pokhara, you might be see a beautiful view like this. These steep fields have been hand carved out of mountainsides all over Nepal, a testament to the hard work and independence of the Nepalese people in maintaining their local food supply. This season, food production is going to be more needed than ever, as China, India, and Nepal’s responses to #Covid19 will deeply impact food security. Thanks to your generous donations, our home leaders were able to purchase a large supply of food to help them through this difficult, and very uncertain time. Other people would not have had this opportunity to pay for this large supply. Please join us in continuing to keep this beautiful country in our thoughts and prayers, that crops will be plentiful, and that those who are in deep need will find both strength and sustenance in the days ahead. . . . . #nepalstrong #hopefornepal #foodsecurity #landscapeviews #canadiancharity #generoushearts #beautifulday #beautifulskies #terracedfields #nepalfarmersmarket

Nepal remains on lockdown, with 4 confirmed cases, and an increase in suspected cases. A hospital in Kathmandu has been designated to handle all Covid-19 cases, and the country prepares for quarantine measures. . Nepal lacks the medical infrastructure, equipment, and staff to handle a major outbreak, so extra precautions are being taken to prevent the spread of the virus. . The Children's Home is still safe, the kids are all staying home, and the family remains healthy. . We appreciate all your thoughts and prayers during this challenging time. Please consider sending a donation towards our emergency fund, providing instrumental support in this time of crisis. #nepal #childrenshome #facemasks

This collaborative drawing is between a home resident and me, @marcierohrart 😊 . This little drawing takes on new meaning as we look at it in the #covid era that is now our reality. Nepal is now on lockdown after a second case was confirmed. While the virus itself can pose a major threat to Nepali citizens, the impact of a lockdown on the economy will undoubtedly be devastating as well. Thank you for continuing to keep our home, and the country, in your thoughts and prayers. Please consider sending a donation designated for emergency funding. It will go right where it is needed most 🙏 ❤️ 🇳🇵 . . . . . #covid19 #canadacharity #nepaldrawing #collaborativeart #staystrongnepalese

In Nepal, our family is starting to feel the effects of Covid-19. The village of Bandipur has their first suspected cases: a family of 4 who have all been sent to hospital in Kathmandu. . The schools remain closed, and the Children’s Home is stocking up on food, sanitizer, and some basic first aid supplies. . People in Bandipur are feeling scared, and many people have started wearing face masks, including the family at the Children’s Home. #nepal #childrenshome #facemasks #covid_19
