Support a Family
Our goal is to support the families that we know have been badly impacted by the floods. We have witnessed this tragic disaster and the consequences of it with our own eyes.
We have seen families struggle, trying to rebuild their lives and homes. In addition, we are supporting many other relief activities and acquiring funds as needed. We believe that aiding these families directly, can grant the affected families a more secure means of getting back on their feet.
Many organizations and government agencies have supported with food and clothing. There are a number of less fortunate families that need help to restart their lives and get a sense of normalcy. It needs to begin with much needed basic household items and kitchenware so they can begin to sleep and cook in their own homes.
Below is an approximate cost involved to support a family.
