The People of Nepal Need Our Help

Yesterday a powerful 7.8 earthquake devastated the country of Nepal. It’s the nation’s worst earthquake in 80 years and has already claimed the lives of more than 2,100 people.

The Internet Society has a Chapter in Nepal and has been working on Internet related projects in the region since 2007.

Right now, humanitarian and aid organizations need your help to help serve areas affected by the earthquake.
