PLEASE SPONSOR a RICKSHAW and transform the life of a struggling Nepali family by providing them with a sustainable source of income and a brighter future. Join me in making a real difference!
ABOUT ME: My name is Fred Wilkinson. I am 80 years old, a UK citizen, and the founder of a small Nepal-based Memorial Charity, One Golden Angel. The charity is primarily funded by myself and too small to formally register. Its focus is the rescue, support and rehabilitation of trafficked, orphaned, and exploited women and children, but it also performs random acts of kindness when funds permit.I regularly travel to Nepal to oversee the charity’s work, personally covering all expenses to ensure that 100% of donations go directly to alleviating suffering.
ABOUT THIS APPEAL: This is an urgent and heartfelt appeal to provide a LIFE-LINE to a wonderful Nepali family whose lives have been devastated by the COVID-19 pandemic and the loss of their livelihood and now faces overwhelming challenges. I am seeking your help to SPONSOR THE PURCHASE OF A NEW eRICKSHAW to replace the worn-out petrol vehicle that once provided them with a decent living. With no possibility of repair and no alternative work available, this family is now facing terrible debt and struggles to put food on the table or pay their bills. Tragically, their 8-year-old son was refused schooling because his fees remain unpaid. Their situation has grown increasingly bleak, and the wife has been CONTEMPLATING SUICIDE — a heartbreaking reality that is alarmingly common in Nepal.
One Golden Angel has provided temporary relief to the family, but acquiring a new e-rickshaw would TRULY TRANSFORM THEIR LIVES. I know this family personally, and I have witnessed their kindness and generosity toward others in their community during better times. It is for this reason—as well as the hope of preventing a potential tragedy—that I make this URGENT APPEAL for your support.
ABOUT ONE GOLDEN ANGEL: Since its establishment in 2016, One Golden Angel has made significant strides in helping those in need. It opened Nepal’s first emergency shelter for rescued trafficked and exploited children, saving around 50 children in the process. It has sponsored a home for 20 orphans for five years, supplied orphanages and school kitchens with cookers and fridges, covered numerous university and school fees, and purchased 26 bicycles to help children in remote areas access education. It is currently focussing on improving the living standards of an entire marginalized village (population 282) in a remote part of Chitwan. To date, it has connected the village to a distant mains water supply, installed standpipes and a public toilet block, delivered health and hygiene programs, and provided every family with essential cooking utensils, farming tools, seeds, and plants. I invite you to explore my public Facebook pages for more details about our humanitarian projects. https://www.facebook.com/fred.wilkinson.79
TIMESCALE: I will be returning to Nepal in FEBRUARY 2025 and it is my heartfelt wish to personally deliver this life-changing gift during my visit. I kindly urge you to consider donating now—together, we can make a profound impact on this family's future and bring hope back into their lives. Thank you for your kindness and support.
