IME Limited has started IME Bharosa Kosh to support the families in Nepal of those who lost their lives to Covid-19 abroad

Announcement

Everyone knows that IME Limited, which has been working as a leading organization in the field of remittance for the past 20 years, has been dedicated to the service of the people. Our main objective is to ensure that remittances earned by you or your family member abroad reach your relatives in a safe, reliable and dependable manner. No matter how difficult the situation, we have been taking the task of making remittance service more convenient, accessible and customer friendly as a business religion and we have been providing services accordingly. We express our heartfelt gratitude to the general service recipients for their continued support and assistance in our objective and commitment. We believe that we are in this place today only because of the trust we have earned by safely delivering the hard earned money of those who have worked abroad to their relatives.

At this time, like the rest of the world, we are in the grip of the Corona Virus. We are deeply saddened to hear the news that Nepali brothers and sisters living in the country and abroad (especially in the Gulf and Malaysia) have lost their lives due to the pandemic created by the Corona Virus (Covid-19) which started in late December. We offer our heartfelt condolences to all those who lost their lives in this pandemic and to their relatives. Also, we wish a speedy recovery to all those infected with this pandemic.

As a leading business entity in the country, IME has some social responsibilities. IME, which has been adhering to corporate social responsibility as its main duty, has developed a tradition of helping as much as possible in times of distress and has been continuing to do so since its inception. Therefore, at this time, we have decided to provide all possible assistance to the relatives of those who died abroad due to the Corona pandemic.

This season of festivals that we Nepalese celebrate with a passion has been rendered dull this year. That is why we have been unable to come up with a customer-oriented scheme that is put in place every year for the festive season. However, the arrangement of special services to be provided during the festival has been made as usual. We would like to inform here that we have decided to redirect the resources and means to be spent on a festive scheme towards a welfare scheme this year. We are confident that the affected families will be reassured by our efforts.

Therefore, taking into account the emergency humanitarian situation of Corona Virus (Covid-19), IME Limited has set up a trust fund, “IME Bharosa Kosh” to support the families in Nepal of those who have lost their lives to the virus abroad. This fund has been established by the company for the sole sacred purpose of human welfare. We invite applications from those who wish to receive financial assistance by fulfilling the prescribed conditions and documents to be sent to the following address.
