The Nepalese Society of Texas has launched a GoFundMe campaign to send relief money to Nepal after deadly flooding left Murphy residents Archana Suresh and Raghu Rajan still missing.

The campaign, titled "Nepal's Flood Disaster Relief Fund 2026," went live Thursday, Aug. 27. Organizers say every dollar raised goes directly to the Government of Nepal's Prime Minister's Disaster Relief Fund, according to WFAA.

The campaign page says contributions deliver food, shelter and medical relief to flood survivors.

Bijaya Bhusal, president of the Nepalese Society of Texas, told WFAA on Friday, Aug. 28 that both he and immediate past president Rajendra Wagle have family and friends affected by the disaster.

"They're losing their family members, they're losing their houses, they're losing their assets," Bhusal said.

Members of North Texas' Nepalese community have been gathering daily at the Nepali Cultural & Spiritual Center in Euless to pray for those still missing.

As we reported Saturday, Aug. 29, Suresh and Rajan are longtime Murphy residents who were on a spiritual pilgrimage with the travel group Kailash Journeys. They left Kathmandu on Tuesday, Aug. 25 and were crossing the Nepal-China border when the flooding struck, NPR reported.

Their last known location was near the Gyirong Port border post. The couple has two college-aged children.

Twenty-six foreign nationals and five Nepali guides traveling with the couple's group are also unaccounted for, according to the family. A Plano couple, Deepak and Madhu Ahuja, are also missing after traveling to the region on a separate pilgrimage with Isha Sacred Walks.

Rajan's sister-in-law, Divya Chandrashekar, told WFAA on Friday, Aug. 28 that the family is hoping for a miracle and just wants the couple to come back safe.

Nepal's foreign secretary said Sunday, Aug. 30 that 734 bodies had been recovered. More than 2,400 people remained missing, according to Nepal's Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The Red Cross estimated more than 90,000 people were affected.

As of Sunday, Aug. 30, 85 Americans were still unaccounted for, U.S. State Department spokesperson Tommy Pigott said. The U.S. activated $3.6 million in emergency assistance, including food relief for 10,000 households.

Nepal authorities warned that heavy rain could continue through Tuesday, Sept. 1, raising the risk of additional flash flooding and landslides.

Residents who want to help can search "Nepal's Flood Disaster Relief Fund 2026" on GoFundMe. Daily prayer gatherings continue at the Nepali Cultural & Spiritual Center in Euless.
