#DoforKerala #KeralaFloods Kerala is staggering under the worst floods in its history since the end of July. The devastating floods have paralyzed normal lives of people. IGSSS is on the ground, coordinating with State Inter-Agency Group (IAG) and Government of Kerala, providing the best assistance to the affected people in Wayanad district of Kerala. Let's all join together to Save Kerala - God's own Country, by generously donating to IGSSS in order to reach out to the most affected people.
12 out of 14 districts within Kerala are currently impacted. The torrential rains, overflowing rivers and a series of landslides have devastated the state of Kerala. As of now more than 400 people have died and more than 2.47 lakh people have sought refuge in relief camps. Poorest of the poor are the most affected with many losing their businesses and homes. There is a shortage of food, water, and other facilities. Outburst of diseases is a major concern.
Flood waters in many parts of Kerala have started receding. The IGSSS intervention in Kerala's Wayanad district has supported more than 500 families by providing them with essential hygiene and shelter kits. Our way forward is to focus on the long-term rehabilitation and recovery of the families. We have identified three areas to work upon: shelter, livestock and livelihood options. Considering the aggravated sanitation conditions, health promotion programs will be initiated.
Indo-Global Social Service Society (IGSSS) team is working on the ground to support 1200 people who have lost their livelihoods and shelter in the floods to rebuild their lives and lead life with dignity. We are providing health & sanitation kits, educational materials for kids, livestock support for landless and tribal families, organizing vaccination camps for livestock and building transit shelter for families who have lost their homes in the devastating floods Wayanad district Kerala, India
