Earthquake in Nepal (April 28, 2015)

As our Rapid Response Team in Kathmandu begins operations deploying our UAVs and water purification systems, the volunteers at our office in Toronto have spent the day preparing and shipping additional relief items. These items include 30 tents of various sizes from 16' x 16' up to 18' x 36' that will be used to replace damaged infrastructure for hospitals and health clinics. Tens of thousands of families have spent their nights outdoors due to the fear of strong aftershocks that continue to ravage Nepal. These shelters will be essential in providing people with access to safe and reliable space to receive medical care.
