Two men running the Westchester Half Marathon in New York to support HELP NEPAL Network.

Two Nepali professionals, Kshitij Prasai and Anish Sharma, are running the Westchester Half Marathon on October 9th, 2011 to raise funds for the Help Nepal Network (www.helpnepal.net).

Help Nepal Network is a registered 501(c)(3) not-for-profit entity in the US dedicated to help underprivileged communities in rural Nepal. The organization is operated by a group of highly dedicated volunteers in fourteen countries around the world. Funds raised from events such as these are channeled towards building educational and health care facilities including schools, libraries and health posts.

Who are the runners?
Our two runners, who are also cousins, reside in New York City. Kshitij Prasai works as a Database Administrator at OpenLink Financial in Uniondale, New York.
