Project & Community Updates

Project Sites: The schools from our last project and our current project are not in the flood's path. We are still awaiting updates on families near the Trisuli River school (from our 2019 trip – remember the swing bridge).
Student Impact: Dawa Wangmo Tamang, an MSU Nepali nursing student currently in Billings, tragically lost her uncle and cousins in the disaster.
Rotary Partner: Our partner club, RC Tripureswor, is still developing a relief plan. Some of their Rotaractors are already collecting clothing to distribute via the army. I will share their formalized relief plan as soon as it is released.

3 Ways You Can Support Relief Efforts

1. Direct Support for Dawa’s Family: You can donate directly to Dawa via Venmo to support her family during this tragedy. Contact Mary at mhub@alum.mit.edu for details.
2. Tax-Deductible Local Donation (Building Bureau): Send funds through our local Bozeman non-profit, Building Bureau, which is routing money directly to their trusted on-the-ground partner, Sower’s Action Nepal. (See attached PDF for links).
3. ShelterBox USA: Donate to Rotary’s official project partner, ShelterBox, which is actively providing emergency shelter in Nepal: ShelterBox USA Relief Fund

Thank you to everyone able to contribute to these efforts. 

Thank you to everyone who made our Community Day of Service at Lighthouse Ranch such a fantastic success! It was a beautiful autumn day, and it was wonderful seeing members from both the Bozeman Sunrise Rotary and the Rotary Club of Bozeman working together to serve our community.

Tip #27

Bike or walk short trips

Fresh air helps.

If 50 people replaced one drive per week, it would cut about 12,000 miles of driving per year.
