The damage and devastation in Nepal after the earthquake on Saturday is horrific. You can find more information about what happened here: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/04/28/world/asia/nepal-earthquake.html?hp&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&module=a-lede-package-region
This is especially sad as Nepal is one of the poorest countries in the world. Middle income families earn about $200 a month. This will have a huge effect on their economy especially in the tourism sector as several heritage sites were destroyed and the avalanche at Everest may stall the climbing tourism industry for quite a while.
If you'd like to know how you can help, the New York Times has more information here: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/04/27/world/asia/where-to-donate-for-nepal.html?hp&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&module=b-lede-package-region
