On 25 April a powerful 7.8 earthquake devastated the country of Nepal. Two weeks after the initial quake, there are more reports of another major earthquake hitting near the town of Namche Bazar, near Mount Everest.
All our Chapter members have reported that they are safe.
These earthquakes already claimed the lives of more than 5 000 people, injured thousands more and left tens of thousands of people without homes and supplies.
The Internet Society has a Chapter in Nepal and has been working on Internet related projects in the region since 2007.
Right now, humanitarian and aid organizations need your help to help serve areas affected by the earthquake.
