The flash flood that occurred near the Nepal-China border has caused devastating loss of life, with a significant loss of lives and many people still missing across Nepal and the Tibet Autonomous Region.
This tragedy is a stark reminder of how climate change is intensifying extreme weather events worldwide. Melting glaciers, unpredictable monsoon patterns, and increasingly frequent flash floods are putting vulnerable communities everywhere at growing risk — and it is often those least responsible for global emissions who bear the heaviest burden.
We are reaching out to call for your support towards the Singapore Red Cross’ (SRC) response to this humanitarian crisis.
SRC has pledged humanitarian aid to support the immediate response efforts of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement and humanitarian partners on the ground. Your donations will go towards critical assistance, including emergency medical care, and rapid assessments of humanitarian needs.
The situation remains dire. Critical infrastructure has been severely damaged, making it difficult to assist affected communities in rebuilding their lives. There are warnings of further flooding, and the full extent of the devastation may still grow. As climate change continues to drive more frequent and severe disasters, the need for sustained humanitarian support has never been greater.
Please consider making a donation during this time of critical need. Your generosity can make a meaningful difference to those affected by this tragedy — and help communities build resilience in the face of a changing climate.
Thank you for your compassion and support.
