From Vipin "Bavaji" Patel, AAHOA Gulf Regional Director:
As of February, 2016, there have been 203 homes completely rebuilt after the catastrophic earthquake in Nepal. Since May 2015, I set the goal to restore one village through the support and generosity of our community leaders across Houston, Dallas, California, Mississippi, Louisiana, Washington, D.C., and other areas.

With their help, we were able to raise $310,000 for this humanitarian project. Furthermore, with the help of the Charitable Care Foundation and Hope for Charity, we were able to build homes for the needy. 

Medical Camp Project
During March, I led a medical camp with 11 medical doctors and staff members that volunteered from our LPS community. They were Dr. Pankaj Mowji, Dr. Umaben Patel and Dr. Ramaben along with three other American doctors, two registered nurses and three supporting staff members. As a result of this Medical Camp Project there were 48 surgeries completed and 1,200 children who received pediatric wellness checks. This group has held over 16 camps worldwide in many different countries, including India.
