A devastating flash flood and mudslide struck Tham

A devastating flash flood and mudslide struck Thame village in the Khumbu on August 16, caused by a glacial lake outburst. This disaster severely damaged twenty homes, several lodges, a school, and a health clinic. Fortunately, everyone was able to escape, with only one person reported missing; all affected are currently staying with friends and family. Our thoughts are with the families and friends in Nepal who are affected by this tragedy. Immediate relief efforts are focused on sheltering villagers and providing financial assistance. This event underscores the increasing vulnerability of mountain communities to climate change. In response, The Juniper Trust, in collaboration with the Pasang Lhamu Foundation and Mountain Lodges of Nepal (whose lodge was completely destroyed), is forming a local committee to determine the best use of donations for immediate relief. Funds will be channeled through the Pasang Lhamu Foundation, ensuring that 100% of donations go to community projects. We will monitor and provide updates on how donations are used, drawing on our experience from rebuilding 20 schools in Nepal after the earthquake. Please donate to the following JustGiving page to support the Thame community during this difficult time.

🌱 Cultivating Sustainability: Nepal Evergreen’s Tea Planting Initiative

Nepal Evergreen has facilitated the planting of 5,000 tea saplings in Bhussinga, sourced from the renowned Bhakanje Tea Estate known for its premium tea production. These saplings will be nurtured under the guidance of farmer Dabal Bahadur Basne, showcasing a commitment to sustainable agriculture. This initiative not only supports local communities through jobs and social initiatives but also promotes the global export of distinctive Nepalese teas, celebrated for their unique flavors and ethical production standards. Tea has been a cornerstone of Nepal’s economy since the mid-19th century, contributing to employment and rural development. The tea saplings are expected to yield harvestable crops within two years, aligning with Basne’s vision of a thriving, eco-friendly agricultural enterprise.

🙌 A Thank you from the Mountains of Northern Pa

We’ve just supplied crucial resources to support four schools—Thingee, Asumbar, Shadri, and Askole. For Thingee Community School, we covered 2 teachers’ salaries, student and office furniture, an LED kit, a computer and table, uniforms, and stationery. For Asumbar and Shadri schools, we provided 3 teachers’ salaries, a computer, printer and cartridge, internet device and fee, uniforms, books, stationery, and a caretaker. In Askole School, we are also supporting part-time teachers’ salaries and a support program for the most deprived children, giving them uniforms and equipment so they can attend school.

These schools stand as beacons of hope and empowerment. With the Juniper Trust’s support, even small donations will go a long way to help these 4 schools. The benefits will extend far beyond their walls. Each child entering these schools carries the potential to ignite positive change in their lives and communities.
We are now looking to raise £10,000 to support these 4 schools going forward for another year to provide even more essential learning aids and equipment, with £2500 allocated to each school. Your support helps us continue empowering the Thingee, Asumbar, Shadri, and Askole communities. Thank you! 🌟📚✨

🥝 NEPAL EVERGREEN : Celebrating the First Kiwi

🥝 NEPAL EVERGREEN : Celebrating the First Kiwi Harvest and Planting 5000 Tea Saplings! 🥝🌿
Dable joined the army in 1996, following in the footsteps of his great-great-grandfather, who was a major in the army at 19, serving for 17 years until 2013. Returning to his ancestral home in the Airmakhue area, he found 3,700 acres of terraced farmland, owned by his family for 300 years.
His main focus has been on planting kiwi plants; to date, he’s planted over 3,000 kiwi plants, a mixture of red and green. The red ones are used to make local wines, while the green ones are sold in local markets and in Kathmandu.
Nepal Evergreen has played a vital role in supporting Dable with the planting of the kiwi trees and with lemon, almond, apricot, and now 5000 tea saplings. His farming practices are organic and sustainable, setting a shining example of best practices. In addition to being completely self-sufficient in vegetables for the lodge, he has won several awards for his farming efforts.

PCs, Printers, and Internet Equipment to 5 Schools

Delivery of New Desks and Chairs to Kinja School

In the wake of the devastating 2015 Nepalese Earthquake, The Juniper Trust has been dedicated to supporting remote and vulnerable mountain communities in the Sindhupalchok district. Following our teacher training visit in November 2023, the Juniper Trust’s Nepal Quality Schools initiative has made significant progress, responding to the needs of the schools we visited, thanks to your incredible generosity!

We have delivered computers, printers, and routers for internet connections to five schools, 3,000 notebooks to ten schools, and we have already built and delivered desks and chairs for seven classrooms at Kinja School, supporting local craftsmanship and the economy. These new resources and access to the internet will significantly enhance the children’s learning experience, providing them with essential digital skills and access to a world of information, ensuring that children have the supplies they need to succeed.

But our work isn’t done yet! We plan to roll out computer support for five more schools. It costs just $500 to provide two PCs, a printer, spare cartridges, a router, and cabling to set up an IT room for a school. If you’d like to make a difference, please consider donating to our Nepal Quality Schools Project. Together, we can continue to transform lives through education. 🙏 A huge thank you to @iremtour @iclimbforyou @utuskincare for sponsoring the Monjo School!
