FLOODS SURVIVORS IN NKHOTAKOTA RECEIVES DONATION OF K214 MILLION

International Federation of Red Cross (IFRC) and Danish Red Cross have through Malawi Red Cross Society made a distribution of K214 million to over 500 families affected by floods in Nkhotakota

According to Danish Red cross country Manager Malawi, representing all Red cross partners, Eva Jordung Nicolson said the support will help the flood survivors to go back to their homes and start a new life.

Nicolson further said that looking at the extent of damages caused by last February’s floods, the red cross partners will still be mobilizing resources for continued support to flood survivors.

Meanwhile, the Director of Housing in the Ministry of Lands, Martin Chimangeni said such support will help flood survivors to construct dwelling places and desert the camps.

Each family affected by the floods has received K100,000. The floods resulted in the loss of eight lives and impacted over 14,000 people in the district.
