Survival Relief package for Chennai flood families

Survival Relief Packages prepared by VOICE Trust with financial assistance received from donors through Global Giving were distributed in the beginning of January 2016. Report of this has already been presented to you. 

During March 2016, Second Phase Flood Relief and Recovery Programs were continued with help received from donors through Global Giving.

*150 flood affected families of Ekkaduthangal who still continue to live on the sides of the streets near metro station were given taurpaulin sheets to use as a temporary roof cover for protecting them from sun heats and rains also given were kerosene stoves to cook their food. This was a big help for them to heat water at night for taking medicenes and such an activity was not possible earlier because near by families objected to using firewood for country mud oven. Once again they were given rice in cloth bags and groceries for cooking.  

*100 school children identified by Kalaipattarai through Cine Director S.P. Mukilan, were given school bags. 

*160 flood affected families of Saligramam were given survival relief packages.

*40 inmates of Orphanage also helped with relief goods.

VOICE Trust is continuing to receive informations from flood affected families that the relief goods received by them because of help from donors through Global Giving has led them in a big way to return to normalcy. VOICE Team thanks the donors and appreciates Global Giving for using us as effective instruments in flood relief activities.
