Giving Something Back to Nepal

Don’t Go Gently exists solely to support village health, education and community welfare in Nepal. All money that is raised goes straight to those causes, and the only people paid by Don’t Go Gently are our Nepali staff. All directors and other Australian helpers are volunteers.

Don’t Go Gently is a small Australian Registered Not-for-Profit Charity organisation, borne out of a love for both the people of the rural areas and the natural beauty of the Himalayas. We have no affliation with any religious institution or government.

Appeal for Support: Flood Relief in Rasuwa, Nepal

 

Dear Friends,

I'm writing on behalf of Dont Go Gently to ask for your help at a time of urgent need in Nepal.

 

We've worked in Rasuwa since 2012, supporting village schools and running a medical clinic in Thulo Syabru. The recent flooding has devastated this district. The village of Syabrubensi, just 600 metres below Thulo Syabru, bore the full force of the disaster — local contacts report more than 60% of villagers lost their lives, and the town's medical clinic, along with many of the buildings were destroyed. Our clinic in Thulo Syabru is now serving a much wider area at the moment medical support is needed most.

This isn't new territory for us. After the 2015 earthquake, we provided emergency shelters and temporary classrooms, built 15 homes for the poorest families, and helped rebuild the local monastery.

We've spent over a decade building trust with the Tamang community, and we'll still be there long after other aid has moved on.

Donations will go toward strengthening the clinic, supporting displaced families, sourcing urgent medical supplies, and helping the community rebuild. Because we already have people and relationships on the ground, your support reaches people directly and immediately.

Don't Go Gently is run entirely by volunteers who cover their own travel costs. The only people paid are local Nepali staff — so every dollar donated goes to the community, with no overheads.

 

Please consider donating to our Nepal flood relief appeal. Your generosity will help sustain a clinic and community that families now depend on more than ever.

About

“Relax, you’re going to die”. 

 

While this Buddhist saying may suggest a dark thought, it is actually an inspirational call to action. Its a reminder to make the most of the time we have left on this earth!

 

So, while Don’t Go Gently may seem like a slightly strange name for a charitable organisation, the message behind it is simple once you know.  Our goal is to try and effect positive change in this world, for whatever time we have on it.
