Sad news from Nepal

Sadly Hari, one of the people we support in Nepal, has died today after a short stay in hospital.  Our prayers are for his wife Gyanu whom he leaves behind.

Hari and Gyanu were the only ‘old couple’ we supported – they had no children of their own and their nephew had cheated them of their life savings.

They are pictured together here.

Women Without Roofs will of course continue to provide support to his wife.

WWR now on Ebay

Sellers on Ebay can now choose to support Women Without Roofs through their sales.  Ebay gives the option for 10 to 100% of an item’s final sale price to be donated to charity and now WWR is among those charities that can benefit.

This is great news as all money raised by WWR goes to Nepal where even the smallest amounts go a long way; for instance just £10 can pay a woman’s rent for a month giving her a home.

To find out more, or to see the items that are currently on sale to benefit us please go to:  http://donations.ebay.co.uk/charity/charity.jsp?NP_ID=31320

As they say on ebay “Thanks for looking”!
