In the initial phase of its
response, the organization distributed 393 weather- and fire-resistant tents to
households that lost their homes. Under its “Food is Life” initiative, it also
provided 260 food packages and 260 kitchen kits, with each food pack sufficient
to sustain a family for one month.
