Humanity First USA Making Urgent Appeal to Help Save Lives

More than 4000 have died as a result of the earthquake in Nepal and almost 8 million, a third of Nepal’s population has been adversely affected by the tragedy.

Humanity First USA is making an urgent call for donations after a horrific earthquake measuring 7.9 on the Richter scale rocked Nepal two days ago. The latest reports indicate over 4000 lives lost, and scores more injured or at risk of death.

Humanity First has deployed a highly trained volunteer first responder team of top healthcare and disaster relief workers to Nepal. These medical and disaster relief workers are traveling to the earthquake’s epicenter and surrounding regions to provide immediate medical assistance and supplies to those at most imminent risks of further injury and death.

“For two decades now Humanity First has served as the world leader in responding to natural disasters,” said Munam Naeem, Executive Director of Humanity First USA, “We are making an urgent appeal to everyone for donations to maximize our efforts on the ground in Nepal. Every dollar donated saves lives.”

Among numerous campaigns, Humanity First previously deployed first responders to help victims of Hurricane Sandy, the Haiti earthquake, and is currently building schools to serve Syrian refugees.

Humanity First USA seeks active support to help those currently suffering under deplorable conditions in Nepal. Please donate through the various options available at the following link: http://usa.humanityfirst.org/donate
