In Maputo, a group of ALG
Friends did not want to keep their arms crossed and started a joint initiative
to gather food supplies and medicines to be sent to the affected flood areas.
This local campaign is under the leadership of Sonia, one of the ALG friends
based in town, who is putting all her efforts to help the communities in
Chokwe, Xai-Xai and Chongoene.
The more urgent needs at
the moment are food supplies (especially non-perishable or canned ones), water,
zinc plaques (to provide make-shift shelter) and medicines, for malaria and
diarrhea. This initiative has the
full support of the American School in Maputo, where the collection of donated
goods will take place.
We will use part of our
emergency funds to hire transportation of these goods from deposit to the
affected areas, alongside the existing but insufficient means of transport of
our Local Partners.
If you have friends in Maputo who
may want to help, please contact us and help spread the word!!
