Dear friends,
We want to tell you that the last month we went to visit the flood victims in Salto (A small town located in Buenos Aires) and approached them aid.
We did a survey and 15 families are the ones that are severely affected in which 50 are children and 20 people over 60 years. There are 6 homes in need of structure and all are in need of hygiene and cleanliness materials.
We have seen that after the flood they have many health needs, especially in the fight against mosquitoes and the spread of diseases such as zika, dengue and chicungunya.
We have taken remedies, cleaning and personal hygiene items.
Nowadays, the water is no longer at their home but it left desolation and needs to face everyday life.
This month we will approach home appliances, drinking water, and school supplies as they start classes and children have lost everything to the floods. We will take books, overalls, pencils, backpacks, among others.
We share the photos we took that day and soon we will tell you the developments.
Once again, thank you all for your support!
