Sajha.com is not only about fun and games. We can also make an impact for a good cause. Dil Shova's selfless service to the elderly has been applauded many times by sajha members and it is indeed a great cause to support.

Many destitute and the elderly with no support have found a home in Dil Shova's house. They have found a daughter and mother in Dil Shova's heart and her home. Dil Shova takes it as her responsibility to feed them, do their laundry, take care of their basic needs, medical attention/doctor visits, and everything in between to ease their lives.

Any support that we can give her goes on to increase her ability to help more people and to help do a better job.

Please open your "दिल" and make a contribution. This will be a contribution from the combined sajha heart.

Living abroad, we wish we could do something for Nepal. There are a lot of causes to choose from. Every other cause is as deserving as the rest but what sets this apart is that this is about the old and helpless. There aren't too many causes for them. Let us take this opportunity to support a woman whose Elegance is her Heart. Whose virtue lies in helping out the destitute elderly people who have no support in their frail old age.

Please take a moment to visit the donation page to make a contribution.

When we see a homeless person lying helplessly in the street we wish we could do something but we don't do anything. When someone like Dil Shova actually takes destitute old people from the street to her own home to care for them, to provide food, shelter and medical care for them, all we can do is be amazed at the size of her heart and her strength to do something that we could never do.

Let's help and support her. The cost of one drink goes a long way in helping this cause.

 

Over the years, there have been many changes but one thing has remained constant and that is the spiralling down of Nepali politics, Nepali economics, and if there is such a thing as the general Hope index of the Nepali people at large.

Apparently even my hope index had spiralled down that is why I had a very conservative goal for this fundraiser of 44 days for a conservative $6000.

But, all of you have proved that no matter how bad the situation is in Nepal, no matter how much lack of systematic and authentic politics have negatively impacted the general standard of Nepali society and Nepali individual, and no matter how much the Nepali politicians have killed our hope for a better future of our country, -  we Nepalis still have genuine hearts and we still have the power within us to make positive changes in our beloved country for our beloved underpriviledged countrymen, women, children and elder folks.

It is overwhelming that in 2 days we are more than 50% into our goal. This speaks volumes of our Nepali heart. The Nepali दिल is indeed very large and we are very emotional and respectful and supportive of our elders and our underpriviledged counterparts, but the reality is that we are not able to personally get involved in the grass root level because of our own personal commitment, schedule and most important, geographic location. Even then, when we get a chance to show our support, we don't hold back and we give support दिल खोलेर.

With that I wanted to thank each and every one of you that have supported this fundraiser in any which way you could by contributing any dollar amount. Special acknowledgement is due to the following individuals for their Honorable Support of $200 or more.

• Anup Karmacharya
• Amrish Karmacharya

As few of you have mentioned, this fundraiser is far from being over! We still have to raise almost $3000 more to be able to provide the 5Lakh Dil Shova needs right now. Once we meet this goal we will create more goals for the sustainability of her commendable work.

Let's continue to share this effort to reach our goal faster so we can do more in the days to come.

Happy Friday!

This page has been viewed 3800 times but the donation is $3600.
not even $1 per view.

if $5 per view have been donated it would have been $19,000 and nepalese Rs 16 lakhs. its interest if you put in nepali bank at 6% will be Rs96,000 annual i.e. Rs 8000 per month.

Oye keta keti ho jo ki 1 month training le 80 - 90k talab khai ra haru, $1 ni donation garna sakdaina? Timiharu sabaile donation garyo bhane 5 years experience ko jhuto boleko paap clean huncha hola.

Maile ta gari sake $100 hai. Lau gara timiharu pani, thinking one day you will be in their situation when your children leave you in nursing homes.

 San dai, Great Iniative. Good luck and well wishes. Finally did something good early in the morning by donating whatever i could. 

No question about the 'Punya Karma' by Dilshova didi. As some commented validly, should not we make the kids (if not the elders) do some product oriented works in their leisure time ? I understand they have to study and do home work, but they can manage at least one hour a day. Look at the school going children in the villages. They carry fodder for the cattle from the forest, fetch water from far away rivers etc. and still go to the school.

My point is : RATHER THAN OFFERING FISH EVERYDAY TEACH THEM HOW TO FISH ONCE !

Having said that thanks for those who have contributed. I am going to Nepal soon and will visit the location in person to make my 'Yatha sakya' contribution.

Wat u talkin about my nigga? Do you think those kids don't have right to play, go to school n learn something? Is this their age to work? And you giving examples of village? They ain't doing that for fun? Will you direct your kids to go to forest n feed grass to cows? Yahan Manche haru thulo kura matra garchan, sahayog garne Kamai hunchan. Budha-budhi palna Lai Sana Sana ketaketi Lai mainbatti banauna lagauna ta bhayena ni, uniharu Lai ni padhne-khelne abasar dinu paryo ni!!! Ki kaso????

I wish people either joined hands to promote the cause or just stopped boring us with whatever jibberish they're yapping. Take your ideologies to Philosophy 101 class or something. 

In the meantime, lets not shop sharing the page, promoting the noble cause and keep contributing. 

That's what I'm saying too.

Some people think they are the only people who donated money for Dil Fund. They (he) take every opportunity to dig at the people who might be helping behind the scene for this noble cause. If you have any problem with those people simply open another dedicated thread instead if yapping and cursing over here. Lets stop this kind of nonsense rant and instead motivate others to donate with better approach.

 त्यसो त मैले जति सहयोग गरे त्यो दिल शोभाको दिल हेरेर गरे .... न कि यो धागोमा यस्तो गर्नुपर्छ र उस्तो गर्नुपर्छ भन्ने पन्डितहरुको तर्क पढेर ... र भविष्यमा कसैलाई सहयोग गर्नेछु भने त्यो पनि दिल नै हेरेर .... पन्डितजीहरु सबै ठाउँमा यहाँहरुको अर्ती र उपदेशले काम चल्दैन । कसैको दिल जित्नु छ भने दिल दिएर बात गर्नुस अनि दिल खोलेर सहयोग गर्नुस ।

अमेरिका मा मान्छे मर्यो भने सबै संघ संस्थानहरु मिलेर पैसा उठाएर दहा संस्कार गर्छन |
जिउदो असक्तको लागि पैसा उठाउन सक्दैन के गर्ने होला? मरे पछि दहा संस्कारको लागि पैसा चाहियो भनेपछि बल्ल खल्ती बाट पैसा निकाल्ने होला
अनि मन्दिर बनाउन लै त खल्ती बाट टन्नै पैसा झार्छन त हो |

 why is the target only $6000?

 @good_mission: I wish everybody has the same thought like yours. With this range, seems like it's going to be hard to reach the target and you're talking about hundred thousand. Yes, you're right that if only one person in U.S. donate one dollar than it's going to be piece of cake but the main problem is advertisement. It's all about publicity. The more people will know about this, more it'll be good for this fund. But it seems like only few of us who are regular in sajha donated and rest don't even know about it. So let's post the link in our facebook, twitter or any other social networking site so that people will know about this fund. Let's do it and at least reach the target. 

We should post it on our facebook page and inform our friends and family and ask them to pass it on to their links as well. This is not getting enough publicity. The fund has almost stalled right now.

 exactly like sidster mentioned.

It's really sad that after a much enthusiastic beginning, the fundraising has almost stalled at around $ 4000. Dil Shova Shrestha needs Rs. 500,000 to release her house from collateral in the bank. However, good news is that the another fundraiser has raised about $ 2700.00 through http://www.gofundme.com/aamaghar. So, it makes total $ 6700 which is equivalent to Rs. 570,00.00 even when applying the exchange rate @ Rs.85/dollar. So. my idea is why not send this amount to Dil Shova collectively at the earliest possible, so that she can pay the bank for her house asap. And let's continue raising fund every month, whatever amount is collected till the end of every month, send it to her on the first day of next month. This way she can have regular cash flow to meet her daily necessities.

Nepalese are very humble people. They will donate only in the name of God who they think they will see after their death.

 Keep this thread alive.

 good_mission le bhaneko jhai 100000 K nai target puryaunu parca. 6000 K bhayo paci amaghar ma dine but still keep the thread active. ani jati donation haru auca teslai add gardai jane until it reaches 100000 K

getting there:D

If ever you thought you wanted to do something for country or someone but wasnot able to, here is your chance.


 I feel the sajha fund raiser has kind of reached almost it's saturation point. Although sajha is great platform to get in touch with lots of great people, we all can look forward to platforms with greater reach such as facebook.

 WIth socal networking we can spread this good deed just as word of mouth. I know some of you friends will be hesistant to take up this cause. But if there ever was a cause to risk your personal identity, I would choose this.

 Please share,like or comment as much as you can. I believe it is worth trying.  Here wer go Dil fund facebook page:www.facebook.com/DilFund
