The Gurkha Welfare Trust ensures that Gurkha veterans, their widows and their wider communities are able to live with dignity in Nepal, through the provision of financial, medical and community aid.

GWT is very dear to me and my family. Being a 3rd generation Gurkha myself, I have seen first hand the support it provides to the Gurkha veterans and their loved ones. My stay in Nepal for 20 months as well as Duty Trek to remote villages in Nepal provided me with an insight into how the money is spent and how much they appreciate the support GWT provides to them. My dad has been with GWT Nepal for over 15 years and he is nearing the end of his time with the wonderful organisation.

Due to COVID-19 this year, funds collected this year has been low compared to previous years and more help is needed now.  My aimed fundraising target is enough to provide a month's pension to 10 x Welfare pensioners.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Namaste

Thank you
