You can help! New West Seattle fundraiser for Nepal quake victims

| How to help | West Seattle news

More of your neighbors reaching out across the globe to help survivors of the 7.8-magnitude Nepal quake that killed more than 7,000 people. Just got word of this:

7-11 at Admiral Junction started a Nepal Earthquake Relief Fund to be assured that timely help is reached to Earthquake victims in remote villages far away from Kathmandu City. We are requesting our community to donate as little or much they are able to. This store has already collected over $800 from its customers in the last few days and hopes to raise more to buy basic food and tents to victims in the rural areas where time is running out and no aid has yet reached. The money raised is wired daily to the volunteers in Kathmandu who will deliver directly to the victims in need at the earliest possible time. If you want to know more about this, please feel free to contact Kap at 7-11 at the Admiral Junction, West Seattle. Thank you in advance for your kindness.

The store is at 4312 SW Admiral Way.

Kap-thanks for all you are doing! My husband, Diwas, a Nepali native, is headed to Nepal on Sunday to assist in recovery efforts. Let’s collaborate –maybe we can save a weeks worth of wire transfers & pass the money directly to your team in Kathmandu!
