Description

In the spirit of Asha or “hope”, the Asian Institute at the University of Toronto invites you to a breakfast fundraiser to aid victims of the earthquake in Nepal.

After the devastation of the 7.8 magnitude earthquake that hit the region on April 25, the people of Nepal are in dire need of assistance. Hundreds of local and international organizations are working day and night for relief and rebuilding work. Please join us in supporting them. Donations in any amount are welcome, with tax receipts issued for contributions of $25 and over. Proceeds raised go to Nepal-based Association of Youth Organizations Nepal (AYON) www.facebook.com/AyonNepal via Scadding Court Community Center and Plan Canada www.plancanada.ca.

The Government of Canada has pledged to match privately raised funds, so your generosity will automatically be doubled.

Please help the University of Toronto mount a strong collective response to rebuild Nepal
