    xBhp with Nepal - A G2G to raise funds to help the victims of Nepal Earthquake 2015

    Agenda: Fundraising to help Nepal Earthquake victims
    When: Sunday, May 10, 2015, 7 a.m.
    Where: xBhp dhaba

    Guys,

    We all know about the deadly earthquake that claimed thousands and thousands of innocent lives in Nepal just a few days ago. Not only it left this beautiful country with so many dead bodies, those who survived are devastated as a lot of them have lost their homes and other means of livelihood.

    Thankfully, a lot people have come forward to lend a helping hand to Nepalese people, including our own government/country. The government to government cooperation will continue hopefully, but it is the duty of everyone of us to help in whatever way we can to help that beautiful country stand on her feet once again.

    xBhp, with your support, would like to contribute towards the relief process in Nepal and to that effect we propose a fund-raising G2G on Sunday, May 10, 2015, at 7 a.m. at xBhp dhaba at the Qutub Institutional Area. We urge every member of xBhp Delhi to be there to support this noble cause. The members can donate as much as they want, but like we've done earlier it would be great if each participating member can contribute an amount equivalent to the cubic capacity of their motorcycle.

    All the money collected at the G2G will be deposited in the account of Where Eagles Dare Foundation. The WED Foundation team along with Hotel Associations Uttarkashi, Azim Premji Foundation Uttarkashi District, Ex-Soldiers Association Uttarkashi, and SBMA Trust Uttarkashi are planning to take a truck load of relief material to Nepal and distribute it among those who need it. They plan to go to Nepal by May 18, 2015, when all the rescue operations will be over and the challenge of rebuilding will be paramount.

    What is Where Eagles Dare Foundation and who is Tilak Soni WED is a foundation started by Tilak Soni who is an avid biker and a mountain lover himself. He's also a long time xBhpian. Tilak used to live and work in Delhi but his love for mountains has made him leave all his belongings here and move his base closer to where his heart lives. He's now based in Uttarkashi in Uttarakhand. WED/Tilak have done a lot of humanitarian/relief work in and around Uttarkashi particularly during the Kedarnath tragedy. xBhp also had organized a similar fund-raising g2g during that time and sent a handful of relief material to Uttarakhand with the help of WED/Tilak Soni. You can read more about that G2G here

    What if you are not from Delhi If you are not from Delhi and cannot attend this fund-raising G2G in person but still want to contribute in this cause, you can deposit the money directly in WED foundation's account. Following are the account details,

    Bank Name: Canara Bank

    Acc Name: Where Eagles Dare Foundation
    Type of Acc: Savings
    Acc No. 5493101000880
    IBIN NO: CNRB0005493
    Branch : Uttarkashi,


    OR
    if you want to be a volunteer or want to send some relief material instead of direct cash, you can get in touch with Tilak directly at +91-9810025788 / 9457906211

    Note Though we completely trust Tilak and his foundation, we request all the xBhpians to exercise their judgement before making any payment.

    Also, if you are making any payment to him or us directly at the G2G, please update it here on this thread to keep an account of things.

                  Wonderful. Thanks Jayan and everybody else in Kerala who contributed their hard earned money. I just had a call with Tilak and told him about the money being transferred into his account.

                  Tilak plans to take the relief material on 18th or 20th of this month and will share the details with us asap.

                    Dear Friends, am so much thankful to you all for your generous contribution and Support .
                    its such a wonderful association with xBhp fraternity for such a long time .. even during the floods of Uttrakhand in 2013, xBhp family came to extend their whole heartily support and even now when Nepal is reeling under Earthquake tragedy, you all have contributed again..
                    with the help of our local Nepal Liaison we have identified place and people where supplies are needed to be distributed.. we are in process of purchasing supplies needed for distribution to the needy (have ordered tarpaulins, solar lights, masks, blankets, sanitary goods, etc )and hopefully by weekend we shall be in a position to have them all.. packed in suitable vehicle the WED foundation team shall leave for Nepal to extend bit of support to our brothers and sisters in need..
                    once purchases are done i shall post details of them.
                    it feels so proud to be associated with xBhp..
