Dear All, Thanks to everyone for their generous contributions to the Kritika Fundraiser. This week will be the last week for any contributions. I am hoping to be able to have the fund handed over to Kritika within 2 weeks or so. Mercynova, thanks for keeping track of things in Nepal. You have been a great help and your help is greatly appreciated! Best Wishes

On June 3rd, 2014, a bank transfer was initiated for $3,565.97 There was additional transfer fee of $45 accessed by bank which was paid for by sajha.com. The receiving bank  - Siddhartha Bank Nepal charged $25 so a total of $3,540.97 was received at the exchange rate of Rs. 94.75 per dollar. A total of Rs. 335,506.91was received in Ktm. The last tally of Gofundme payments on June 3rd was $3701, from which a fee of $335.03 was deducted so the final raised on June 3rd was $ 3365.97 To the $3365.97 raised, sajha.com added $200 to make a total of $3565.97 Sajha.com contribution = $200 + $45 (bank transfer fee) = $245 On June 6th, another payment was received for $30, which after $2.67 transaction fee was deducted added $27.33 but since the transfer had already been made, it was absorbed within the $245 sajha.com contribution, hence the final sajha.com contribution was $245 - $27.33 = $ 217.67 Gofundme shows a total raised of $3701 + $30 = $3731 A check was drawn in Kritika's name for Rs. 335,507.00 was handed to Kritika and her parents this morning. There was some delay in handing the checks since Kritika lives in Biratnagar and we had to coordinate their arrival in Kathmandu. Special thanks to Subhasini Shrestha for communicating and coordinating with Kritika's family, and special thanks to Pratik Pradhan for coordinating the transfer of check to the Paudel family. Thanks to everyone from chipping in and helping out someone in need. It is these things that makes it worthwhile to be a part of sajha. Thanks again!
