Project Report | Aug 30, 2024
Long Term Solutions

By Rocio Rebagliati | International Community Referent

The 9 de Julio community in Buenos Aires has faced an unprecedented natural disaster that left a deep scar on the town and its residents. In response, our project was launched to provide immediate relief and support to those most affected by the storm. However, the magnitude of the damage has required a shift in our approach, turning a short-term emergency response into a long-term recovery initiative that prioritizes not just rebuilding, but also resilience.

At present, we are in a critical phase of the project, where the immediate needs of the affected families have been addressed as much as possible with the resources at hand. Volunteers have worked tirelessly to stabilize the situation, ensuring that temporary measures are in place to protect those whose homes were destroyed or severely damaged. 

One of the key challenges we are currently facing is the need for official government approval to proceed with more permanent repairs and rebuilding efforts. This approval process is essential, as it will allow us to ensure that the reconstruction efforts adhere to the necessary regulations and standards, ultimately leading to safer and more durable homes for the future. While we await this approval, our focus has shifted towards making this project more sustainable in the long run, as we are prioritizing the durability and quality of the homes we rebuild.

Once we receive government approval, we plan to fully reactivate the project, scaling up our efforts to reach every family in need. Our goal is not just to rebuild houses, but to restore a sense of community and hope in 9 de Julio. We believe that by building stronger, more resilient homes, we can help prevent such extensive damage in the future, and by supporting these families through this difficult time, we can contribute to the long-term stability and well-being of the entire community.

We are deeply grateful for the support we have received so far, and we remain committed to keeping our donors and supporters informed about the progress of the project. Your contributions have made a significant difference, and with your continued support, we are confident that we can overcome the challenges ahead and help the people of 9 de Julio rebuild their lives with dignity and strength.

Thank you once again for standing with us during this critical time. We will keep you updated on all developments as we move forward with our plans to restore and rebuild this resilient community.

Sincerely,

The Mensajeros Family.
