2015 Earthquake

Of Homes and Dreams

The earthquake of April 25, 2015 in Nepal created massive destruction with a loss of lives and livelihoods, affecting over more than 8000 people and households. As an effort to mitigate and alleviate the situation of the affected populations, Bihani Social Venture (www.bihani.com.np) has taken up the responsibility of adopting interventions targeted at Relief, Recovery and Rehabilitation in whatever way possible. Mentioned below are some of our efforts which have been possible because of our well wishers, friends, family and supporters.
