"Give your Share to show your Care" - Donation to Sunkoshi Landslide Victims

A massive landslide blocked Sunkoshi River and formed a large pool at Mankha on August 2. Around 150 people have been killed and more than 300 have been displaced in the landslide. Mankha is a village in Sindhupalchok District in the Bagmati Zone of central Nepal, about 75 miles east of capital city Kathmandu.

Locals in Barhabishe, Lamesanghu, Khadichaur, Dolalghat, among other surrounding areas have moved to higher grounds fearing that the blocked river may brust anytime.

Seeing the sad news of people suffering from natural calamities, BCN ran a campaign to collect clothes, foods and money for 3 days with a theme
