Waterborne Relief

LXCL:Waterborne Relief is an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to providing professional flood response, water rescue support, humanitarian assistance, and disaster relief to communities impacted by hurricanes, floods, and other water-related emergencies. Waterborne Relief brings together experienced rescuers, emergency managers, boat operators, medical personnel, and technical specialists capable of supporting disaster response operations across the globe.

Phase Two supports locally led recovery and long-term resilience projects in Nepal. Contributions will support vetted humanitarian, rebuilding, education, livelihood, preparedness, and public-safety projects benefiting affected Nepalese communities. One current priority is supporting the continuation and recovery of the Himalayan Outdoor Education Program (HOEP) at Royal Beach Camp. Through hands-on training in river guiding, outdoor leadership, adventure tourism, and safety, HOEP helps young people develop practical skills and pathways to employment. HOEP is one important part of this broader effort. As additional needs and opportunities are identified, campaign funds may also support other vetted projects that advance recovery, education, livelihoods, preparedness, and long-term community resilience.
