About Join Hands & Fashion For Food:
Nepal the landlocked country in the Asian Subcontinent , has eight of the world's tallest mountains including the highest peak on Earth. A developing county with low income economy, Nepal is known for its beauty both man-made structures and the natures gift of mountains and valleys.
A 7.8 magnitude quake struck Nepal on 25th April, flattening large parts of the capital and causing devastation across the improvised Himalayan nation. Over 7000 people have known to have died in Nepal alone and over 2.8 Million Nepalese displaced.
While Kathmandu is now in a rubble, the people need food, shelter and basic first aid. More than 3.5 Million people are estimated to be in need for food assistance and 1.7 Million children in need of first Aid. We want to reach out to resources across the world through people who have the means to do and the humanitarian spirit to want to do it. Helping Hands pleads to the residents in second life: with your hearts , mind and feelings reach out to the people who need us.
JOIN HANDS has partnered with World Food Program – The Asian branch of this UN Organization.

About the World Food Program (WFP):
Founded in 1961, The World Food Programme (WFP) is the food assistance branch of the United Nations and the world's largest humanitarian organization addressing hunger and promoting food security.
With the magnitude of the Earthquake in Nepal the WFP immediate put together its Nepal Earthquake response cell and has been quickly moving to support the survivors.
WFP has three main goals under its Nepal earthquake response:
1) deliver food to survivors and those who need it most,
2) provide emergency operation assistance on a massive scale, and
3) help the humanitarian aid community with relief hub services.
Food Assistance:
WFP is mobilising food stocks in the region, and is chartering a plane to fly in high-energy biscuits (HEBs) and other aid supplies to priority target areas. The Government intends to target areas within the Kathmandu Valley, while WFP is expected to concentrate efforts outside this area. Food trucks are on their way to affected districts outside the Kathmandu Valley, and food distribution have already started. Four assessment teams have been deployed to cover Gorkha, Lamjung, Sindhupalchowk, Rasuwa, Nuwakot, Dhading, Dolakha, Ramechhapp, Kavre, Bhakapur and Lalitpur.
WFP needs US $116.5 million to provide food for 1.4 million people for three months , which translates to US $ 27 for a person for the entire month until they are able to stabilize and organize their own means of sustenance.
Join Hands will support WFP in their mission and provide one of the most basic needs of human survival to those impacted by this massive calamity in Nepal.
