Background: This blog is about "https://hamrofund.org" which I dreamt of building in my uni days.

Stories will only matter when it happens near you.

Nepal doesn't have the culture of giving/donating.

You are the Change, it's how you create the Culture.

Writing this blog, I get a question. How much have I donated then?
Well very few, less than a thousand but that's my capacity as of now.

Few days ago I got a call from someone of a taekwondo committee who waned to know the status of the fundraising campaign they created.

"It's been a lot of time and we haven't received anything. It is a bit urgent now , what can we do? Boost the post? or Direct contact with the donors? He asked for help.
I was helpless , I just said It's not our policy to intervene with the money transaction that happens because we are just a medium. " Talked little bit and then cut off.

I played Taekwondo during my childhood days and I really felt close to this campaign when I first saw it. I wished someone had donated.

Wait, maybe someone did donate but how would I know? We don't have anything like such to know the transactions that has happened. Anyways.

We weren't meeting the expectations that people have while making a fundraising posts. Isn't it frustrating, when you urgently need the funds. Maybe you are in hospital bed waiting for money to come in to pay the bills, maybe organizing something and you are few amount short for it, maybe you're living alone and suddenly got diagnosed with some life taking disease .... life is uncertain.

Then after the call with him I checked on his post. He uploaded esewa QR . I felt that instant urge of doing something for him. Right there, opened my esewa in a thinking of donating at least something but. I had 34.. rupees there.

It made me realize, I shouldn't connect emotionally to everything around me. I donated the 30 rupees and thought maybe this is what I can do in monetary terms but at least I am helping by bringing some light to these people. I have donated 500 earlier for a person whom I felt too touching and being someone who runs platform like this can't keep donating as well. People need to change their thinking.
I made this platform, i tried to help right? Later I will be able to donate quite a lot to these kinds of reason but lets not get emotionally attach to everything around me? but that doesn't mean to act like i don't care. I tried for another push by reposting the story but let's see what happens.
