Namaste!
Thank you to everyone who joined us for our 28th Annual Gala on Friday, September 25 at the Presidio’s historic Log Cabin.
It was wonderful to see so many friends come together to support our work during these increasingly critical times.
With your record-breaking support, we are able to build new schools, improve access to essential healthcare, provide safe, clean drinking water, and construct composting toilets that turn waste into fuel for cooking and heat.
It’s amazing how much we can accomplish together in just one evening!

A message from KP, Keith and the Nepal SEEDS Board
Nepal SEEDS has worked in the Rasuwa District for 25 years now. Fortunately, our villages were not affected by the floods.
Because of our experience in the region, we are well equipped to help the rebuilding in villages that have been destroyed, and to help folks get back on their feet.
Our plan is to rebuild destroyed schools and to provide scholarships to children who have been orphaned by the disaster.
We know how to build schools in Nepal. We can build a smaller village school for as little as $30,000 and a high school for 400 students for just $100,000.
Our annual dinner is coming up on September 25 at the Log Cabin in San Francisco.
Our hope is to raise $250,000 between now and then in order build multiple schools. You can donate here. You can purchase tickets to attend, or sponsor, our fundraising dinner here.
We’d love for you to join us on September 25 at the Log Cabin!
Please Help Nepal Recover.
Nepal SEEDS Ready to Help
The devastating flooding in Nepal’s Rasuwa district has deeply affected communities, families, and travelers along the Bhotekoshi River. As the situation continues to unfold, our first priority is the safety of the people who make up the Nepal SEEDS community and the villages we serve.
We are grateful to report that, at this time, we have been informed that none of the villages where Nepal SEEDS currently works have sustained damage. Our projects are located farther south of the area most severely affected by the flooding.
Our Nepal team, led by KP, is closely monitoring the situation and staying in communication with our local partners and communities. We are also assessing where Nepal SEEDS may be able to provide meaningful assistance as immediate rescue and relief efforts continue.
While our own project communities appear to be safe, we know that the needs across the affected region are significant and will continue to evolve. Nepal SEEDS is committed to responding thoughtfully and responsibly, focusing our resources where they can have the greatest impact.
This is also a time when your support can make an important difference. Donations made now help strengthen Nepal SEEDS’ ability to respond when the need becomes clear—ensuring that when the time comes to put boots on the ground, our team is prepared and equipped to help where we can make the greatest impact.
We will continue to keep you informed as we learn more and as opportunities arise for Nepal SEEDS to support recovery efforts.
Our thoughts are with the families who have lost loved ones, those still waiting for news, and all of the communities affected by this devastating event.
Construction of the new school building for Rupadevi Basic School in Makwanpur District is complete!
The building was officially inaugurated and handed over to the School Management Committee in a ceremony attended by KP, Keshav, and District Coordinator Hari Pudasaini.
The event was graced by the presence of the Ward Chairperson, Mayor, Deputy Mayor, and other respected local representatives, community members, teachers, and students.
We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who generously supports Nepal SEEDS and contributed to making this project a success, including the local authorities and construction team, school staff and community members.
