Nepal Earthquake Relief

A 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck Nepal near the capital of Kathmandu. The government said the death toll has reached 7,040 people, including at least 54 foreigners and that more than 14,000 people were injured with numbers expected to rise as more victims are found by rescue teams. Eight million affected across Nepal. One million children urgently in need of help. Some 70,000 houses were destroyed and another 530,000 homes damaged across the quake-affected districts. These are the startling numbers that indicate the scale of the devastation from the huge earthquake that struck the Himalayan nation on Saturday, April 25th, 2015.

The startling new numbers came hours after a U.N. official said that customs inspections at Kathmandu airport are holding up vital relief supplies for survivors in Nepal. Immediate needs for survivors include Food, Water, Medical aid, Clothes and Shelter.
