Donate to Halchok Relief

The not-for-profit organization Plenty International has graciously agreed to allow our Halchok relief effort to run donations through their organization, thus making donations tax-deductible in the US.

97% of donations will go directly to Halchok relief. We will be paying our own expenses for travel to Nepal and office staff there. If you would like to join this effort focused on helping one needy village, please choose one the below options:

1) Send a check, made out to Plenty International - with a note on the memo line "Halchok Relief Nepal" - directly to us at:
Lois and Ian Alsop
38 Old Galisteo Way
Santa Fe, NM 87508 USA
We will send the check on to Plenty, who will send you a tax deductible donation letter.

2) Visit the Plenty International Donate page, http://plenty.org/donate
And use either the Network for Good donation page or the Paypal donation page to make your donation via a Credit Card. In both of these cases, please be sure to designate the donation for Halchok relief Nepal, and also please send us an email letting us know how you've made the donation and how much you have donated so that we can enter it in our records and plan accordingly. Our email address is
Please consider adopting Halchok and helping "one village at a time" survive now and rebuild in the future.

Thank you for any help you can give, we and the villagers of Halchok appreciate it so much.
