[Tibeto-burman-linguistics] Our colleagues and friends in the Himalaya

[M Mazard]

Hi Kristine,

Thanks for this message.  I would like to make a donation to support
victims of the earthquake.  Can you recommend any particular NGO or
disaster relief fund that might be more effective in its use of funds or
its ability to reach poorer villagers?

All the best,

Mireille
