Introduction
Tekanpur is one of the villages that is badly damaged by the recent earth quakes in Nepal. One of our close friends, Sherpa Dawa Lama Tamang, hails from this village, and he has requested for help to raise money for Tekanpur.
Tekanpur is small village with 145 houses. Some of the houses have collapsed, and of the remaining, most are badly damaged or are unsafe to live. So, most of the villagers are forced to sleep outside under tarps or in temporary tents.
Good News is Dawa has managed to raise funds to source TIN (Roof Material) for 63 dry shelters for monsoon.
Our internal Goals
Help in Building local school and also carry few games (football kit;
volleyball kit; Frisbee etc; and stationery like drawing / art material / writing stationery for the local kids.
Help in Building and sourcing material for 6 to 10 dry shelters
Help in Building School and Critical Watersupply

Requirements
Shelter and Medical Aid: The monsoon season is fast approaching (June to September). Our first priority is to provide temporary shelters and medical care, especially for pregnant woman, babies, and children. A sturdy temporary shelter that will help a family stay dry and safe throughout the monsoon season will cost around $300 (per cottage). (Please have a look at the photos to see the shelters.) We have to build around 65 such shelters.

Water: The village used to getgood quality water from the Rosi Khola River for the past 18 years. However, the iron pipes that have been supplying water to over 1,000 people have been destroyed in parts due to the earthquakes and consequent landslides. There is an immediate need to install new pipes and a water tank so that the entire village gets safe drinking water as well as water for sanitation purposes. Ensuring this will prevent a health crisis in later days. The cost for installing new pipes and a water tank is estimated to be $1,200.
School:The Sanman Primary School in Tekanpur is a basic school established in 1984. The school operates in two buildings and has 135 students of various ages, eight teachers, and nine classrooms. The walls and roofs of the buildings were damaged in the earthquake, making them unsafe to conduct classes. The estimated cost of repair/rebuilding is $3,300. The work will be carried out with the help of the local community.
