The GRM Communities 1st Initiative donated $30,000 to CARE Australia for its tsunami relief efforts in Southern Asia.
CARE Australia is helping provide essential items and services to victims of the Boxing Day earthquake and resulting tsunamis that caused death and devastation across the region.
GRM’s donation will assist CARE’s long term projects aimed at rebuilding affected areas, as well as its immediate relief efforts, which include:
- distribution of food, water, clothing and medicine in Sri Lanka;
- a coordinated emergency response program with the Indian government and local partners in India;
- supply of medicines, first aid kits, water and other essential items in Thailand; and
- the provision of water treatment chemicals and water vessels in Aceh, Indonesia
