In the month of April 2015, we saw one of the harshest natural calamities in the world history. A massive  earthquake claimed more than 9000 lives and injured thousands more while also damaging properties and livelihoods in Nepal.

Around the world, people stepped up to help Nepal rebuild itself in the face of this catastrophe. People lost lives but humanity is far from being dead. We all wanted to help our brothers and sisters in Nepal. As an organisation, we wanted to best use our country-wide network productively so we thought we’d ask our customers to help us help Nepal. http://olablog.wpengine.com/contribute-to-the-pms-relief-fund-to-nepal/
