The candlelight vigil, held at the Welcome Event Center, was organized by the Non-Resident Nepali Association Ohio Chapter (NRNA Ohio). With many Nepali residents in Ohio keeping close ties to family members and relatives in Nepal, the catastrophe has deeply affected the local community.

During the event, participants offered prayers for victims and their families while demonstrating unity with those navigating the disaster’s aftermath.

“We just want to let them know we are for them, like we stand for them,” said Buddha.

Event organizers noted that affected residents in Nepal are in urgent need of fundamental supplies, including food, clean water, temporary shelter, and other essential items. To assist with recovery and relief efforts, NRNA Ohio has launched a GoFundMe fundraising campaign to gather community donations.

Jaaliyadda Nebaal ee Ohio oo Kulan Baroordiiq ah ku Qabatay Reynoldsburg

Xubno ka tirsan jaaliyadda reer Nebaal ee ku dhaqan gobolka Ohio ayaa isugu yimid xarunta Welcome Event Center ee magaalada Reynoldsburg, Ohio, si ay u xusaan dadkii ku dhintay ama ku saameeyay daadadka iyo dhul-go’a ba’an ee ka dhacay dalka Nebaal.

Kulankan laambadaha loo shiday oo ay soo agaasimtay qaybta gobolka Ohio ee ururka Non-Resident Nepali Association Ohio Chapter (NRNA Ohio), ayaa looga gol lahaa in lagu muujiyo garab istaag iyo in lagu kordhiyo taageerada looga jawaabayo masiibadaas. Maadaama kuwo badan oo ka mid ah reer Nebaal ee ku nool Ohio ay eheladooda iyo qaraabadooda wali ku sugan yihiin dalkoodii hooyo, masiibadan ayaa saameyn ballaaran ku yeelatay bulshada deegaanka.

Munaasabadda dhexdeeda, kaqeybgalayaasha ayaa duco u aaddiyay dhibbanayaasha iyo eheladooda, iyadoo lagu muujiyay midnimo iyo taageero dadka wajahaya cawaaqibka ka dhashay masiibada.

“Waxaan kaliya halas ku dooneynaa inaan u sheegno inaan garab taagannahay oo aan la joogno,” ayuu yiri Buddha.

Agaasimayaasha dhacdada ayaa tilmaamay in dadka ay saameyntu ku yeelatay masiibada dalka Nebaal ay baahi degdeg ah u qabaan cunto, biyo nadiif ah, hoy ku meel gaar ah iyo agabka kale ee aasaasiga ah. Si looga qeyb qaato dadaallada gurmadka, ururka NRNA Ohio ayaa bilaabay olole lacag ururin ah oo loo marayo barta GoFundMe si bulshada looga soo ururiyo deeqo dhaqaale.
