Challenge

There are over 300 families who have been displaced due to the flooding at the shores of lake victoria. River Sondu Miriu has marooned several homes and Many families affected, they have to seek alternative shelter at higher grounds as the raging floods continues to submerge all their households in the lower sides of the river. These families are unable to take good care of themselves since most of them are so poor and are unable to afford medicine and clothes hence they need urgent assistance.

Solution

PUDEV will be able to take care of at least 100 families with their children. We will be able to provide them with shelter,buy mattresses,Clothes,Medicine and blankets to assist them in keeping warm and healthy during this time of living in the centre. We will be able to rent some spaces for the families without anywhere to go to and host them in those houses during this sad moments. Most of these household won't be able to get money for the shelters and would be just in the cold nights.

Long-Term Impact

This project would make sure that at least 100 families are well taken care of in terms of shelter and medicine. At least 400 children would be able to keep warm and healthy from the water borne diseases associated with flooding. This would reduce the stigma associated with the impact of this disaster. at least 100 families would receive psycho social support from our organization personnel to enable them have well being during the moments.
