Koovathur

In Koovathur, the rains on 27th October destroyed many of the poorest people’s houses. Our volunteers went from village to village to survey the damage and then provided the most affected people with blankets, buckets, food and vessels.

  
We found that in many of the village the poorest families had been hit very badly.  Mostly these were single women, old women and men, people with disabilities.  They were living in already damaged thatched huts with crumbling mud walls. The rains completely destroyed these huts.  We did a quick survey of these huts and are providing them with materials (“thatch” and mud) - they are reconstructing and repairing their homes with these materials themselves and with help from their neighbors.
  
We are also organizing similar support to the poorest in villages in Vembakkam and Sulagiri where people have been similarly affected.
