NYU STUDENT AFFAIRS
NYU
students from Nepal, the Student Senators Council, and University staff in the
Office of Spiritual Life and the Center for Student Activities, Leadership and
Service have worked together to coordinate an NYU Vigil for Nepal today in
addition to establishing an NYU relief effort to assist families devastated by
this terrible earthquake.

April 28, 2015, 5:00pm - 5:30pm | Kimmel Grand Staircase
Optional
monetary donations will be collected immediately following the vigil. NYU will
be directing our fundraising efforts toward The Global Giving Nepal Earthquake
Relief Fun, an initiative that is committed to both immediate disaster relief
and long-term relief for Nepal earthquake victims.

THE RUBIN MUSEUM
Honoring Nepal
Ongoing |
150 West 17th Street
“The RubinMuseum of Art
has deep institutional and personal connections with Nepal, its people,
traditions, and material culture. The Museum’s collection of art, for example,
includes almost 600 works of Nepalese origin. As devastating news and
photographs continue to emerge from the region, the world is shocked at the
effects of the earthquake.
The Rubin
Museum’s mission is rooted in forging sustained connections, through art and
ideas, to the Himalayan region. In that spirit, we extend our hearts and minds
as Nepalese, and millions of others across the globe, confront the loss of
life, injuries, and devastation to the built environment of the region.”
