Nepal Relief Fund
Through the AIESEC US Nepal Relief Fund, your donation helps communities hit by the August 2026 flash floods in Nepal reach food, clean water, shelter, and youth-led recovery support when they need it most.

The AIESEC US Nepal Relief Fund helps communities and youth in Nepal recover from the August 2026 flash floods with food, clean water, medicine, shelter, and youth-led support when they need it most.
On 26 August 2026, a sudden floodwater surge slammed into towns and villages in central-northern Nepal. According to the United Nations, the flash floods tore through Rasuwa, Nuwakot, and Dhading districts — including communities around Timure, Rasuwagadhi, and Syabrubesi, about 80 kilometres north of Kathmandu.
UNICEF reports that entire communities were swept away or cut off. Roads, bridges, hydropower facilities, water systems, and telecommunications networks were badly damaged, leaving many areas inaccessible and slowing the delivery of lifesaving aid. A collapsed glacier in the steep Himalayan valleys has been cited as a possible cause of the flash flooding and mudslides.
Families in flooded areas have lost their homes, water supply, and access to healthcare. Hundreds of people have been reported killed, and hundreds more remain missing as search and rescue continues. UNICEF says at least 17,000 children have been impacted, with homes, classrooms, and medical facilities damaged. Children who survived now face heightened risks of disease, malnutrition, violence, and exploitation.
With bridges and roads destroyed, much of the response is being run by air. The UN Emergency Relief Coordinator allocated an initial US$2 million from the UN Central Emergency Response Fund to save lives with emergency medical care, shelter, and water. UN agencies are moving food, medical supplies, shelter materials, and relief items into affected districts in support of the government-led response.
