Typhoon Ketsana – Cambodia Assistance Action Plan

 

Donate Now to Provide Direct Aid for Rural Cambodian Children
in areas devastated by Typhoon Ketsana

On September 29th, powerful Typhoon Ketsana, which ravaged the Philippines, raged through central Cambodia killing at least 11 people and injuring many others.

Authorities in Cambodia reported that thousands have been evacuated from their homes as the torrential rains and winds up to 145km (90 miles) an hour swept through Cambodia.  First reports indicate that the Kampong Thom and Rattanakiri provinces were the hardest hit.  Hundreds of homes in these areas have been damaged or destroyed.

In response to the urgent need to supply aid to those affected by this disaster, ‘A Mine Free World Foundation’ (AMFW) (www.aminefreeworld.org), a registered non-profit organization in Canada, is putting in place an Immediate Action Plan. 

We are asking you to Donate Now to provide aid to those children and their families in Cambodia affected by this natural catastrophe.

AMFW Executive Director, and Rotarian, Lisa McCoy will be arriving in central Cambodia on October 9th to oversee direct distribution of much-needed food and supplies to those in rural typhoon-affected areas.

Any amount that you can give will go directly to assisting these victims. 

Donations can be made through:

PayPal at aminefreeworld@yahoo.com,  or

by cheque to ‘A Mine Free World Foundation’,
906 Fung Place, Kitchener, Ontario, Canada, N2A 4M3

A Mine Free World Foundation provides educational and humanitarian assistance to those in mine-infested countries.  Please GIVE NOW and help us help those affected by Typhoon Ketsana.

Thank you for your support.
