Nepal flash floods: Children need your help

The disaster in the Rasuwa region struck at a time when children were either on their way to school or starting lessons. Many children in the area travel long distances to school, areas that are now cut off by flood waters, potentially separating them from their families or caregivers. Damage to phone and internet infrastructure is making it challenging for families to contact relatives. Save the Children staff working in the flood-affected areas say there are significant challenges in reaching communities in need of aid. Roads have been blocked or flooded, and severe traffic congestion is slowing rescue and relief efforts as some people flee affected areas and others travel towards them to support rescue operations.
