On 17 December, Tropical Cyclone Yasa, a category 5 storm, devastated Fiji. The cyclone swept through the populous islands of Suva, Labasa, and Matei.
Widespread flooding and destructive winds have caused damage to homes, livelihoods, and community infrastructure.
Families have faced destruction and many have no home to go to this Christmas, during what has already been a difficult year for many.
ADRA’s Emergency Response Team in Fiji has been on the ground since day one.
Our team started responding immediately by providing water and sanitation hygiene kits to families most in need to help prevent any disease and further harm to people.
The team then conducted a community assessment and identified shelter, water, food, and support cleaning homes as some of the greatest needs.
We have now supplied over 270 Water and Sanitation Hygiene kits to over 18 affected communities.
A donation today will help support ADRA’s relief efforts in Fiji.
