***EMERGENCY CALL FOR HELP!!!*** The Alliance for Democracy & Human Rights in Nepal, USA (ADHRN) calls for your help in providing emergency medical care to those injured in the recent clashes between protestors and security forces in Nepal. Donations may be made securely through PayPal to ADHRN, a 402 registered non-profit. Please click either of the following links to donate: - www.samudaya.org - www.trackabuzz.com/Alliance/ Checks or money orders (made out to ADHRN) may be sent to the following address: ADHRN 48-50 37th Street, #4V Long Island City, NY 11101 USA Please write “Medical Funds” at the memo. Contributions will be used to provide emergency medical treatment to those injured in clashes between protestors and security forces. Medical treatment will be provided to all injured without discrimination, i.e., to members of the security forces, protestors and bystanders alike. Funds will be transferred to Jana Andolan (People’s Movement) First Aid Treatment Fund at Kathmandu Model Hospital: This fund was established specifically to provide first aid to the injured during the uprising, with a 100,000-rupees donation from a couple of celebrities in Nepal. We are also exploring the possibility of providing part of the funds raised to Dr. Brian Cobb, who runs a network of volunteer medical students (about 40 of them), and provides onsight medical treatments at riot areas, completely free of charge to the injured. His team even has rikshaws and other vehicles standby in case they need to rush someone to the hospital. A list of donors will be posted on our websites and updated on a daily basis for public view. Please indicate if you wish to remain anonymous. We will also provide you with a regular update on other aspects of the fund. Our special thanks to the team at www.samudaya.org for their ready willingness to help us in this campaign. We look forward to your contributions. Please spread the word!!!
