Emergency Relief Support
Emergency Relief Support is the immediate provision of emergency relief distribution at the site of the emergency after any disasters occur. This year we were able to reach out to provide emergency relief support to many districts of Nepal which includes Rukum, Morang, Siraha, Baitadi, Kanchanpur, Bara, and Parsa and provided humanitarian aid to persons and communities who have suffered from some form of disaster.
Flood Response

We have provided food items, non-food items, and shelter support to the flood-affected community at Rukum District, to protect the life, health, safety, and welfare of the affected community. As a result, the affected people were benefited from the provision of food and non-food items and their immediate needs were met. Physically and mentally they feel safe and sound. Their lives have been settled and restored after the relief aid. This project was funded by Samaritan’s Purse Canada (SPC).

The affected vulnerable people groups and t h e backward community of Nepal who was suffering from the severe cold this year were provided with winter relief materials. Lives have been affected due to the adverse weather brought about by a cold wave and in these hard times, NCRS was able to meet their immediate needs. The number of people affected by the disaster was reduced. The relief distribution has helped them to survive the winter and remain safe. Our small effort has made a big difference in the community. We are very grateful for our local partners and international donors Samaritan’s Purse, Canada (SPC) and Covenant World Relief, USA (CWR) who supported us in this project.
