In response to the crisis Bright Star Society, a small local nongovernmental organization in collaboration with Gwahali, another non profit organization, focused their efforts to provide earthquake relief for the blind effected by the earthquake.

With the support and collaboration from Bright Star Society, Gwahali and Photo.circle, In Visible a photo exhibition / workshop was held at Nepal Art Council to raise charity and awareness in August 2015. The exhibition was successful to gather funds to build three temporary shelters in Kavre District, the epicenter, for the blind who lost their homes in the earthquake.
