URGENT APPEAL — Rebuild Janihar Village, Tirthan Valley
Janihar Village, a century-old Himalayan village located in the lap of the Great Himalayan National Park region (UNESCO World Heritage Site), once stood proud with traditional Kathkuni houses over 150 years old.
But in November 2025, a single matchstick changed everything.
Within just 2 hours, the entire village turned to ashes.
16 families lost everything — their homes, clothes, food, utensils, documents, and memories.
Today, these families are standing in the freezing cold with zero support and zero resources.
Temperatures have already dropped close to 0°C, and winter has arrived mercilessly.
Yet, these are the same humble, open-hearted people who always welcomed everyone with love —
They never asked who you are, where you come from, or what religion you follow.
They offered warmth, smiles, and shelter to thousands of travellers.
Now, they need us.
A few organizations have stepped forward, but it is not enough.
We must unite to rebuild their homes, dignity, and future.
