During the Ebola crisis a few years ago, we found that the most serious issue was not the disease itself, but that the actual process of lockdown led to starvation.
At the recent AGM of the Thames Valley Soroptimist Internatonal club, it was agreed to send money to the Kori district, to buy rice, which was taken to the area of the project by the army. It was then transferred to plastic sacks for distribution. As during the Ebola situation, the rice was distributed to the cases with the greatest need first.
The rice arrived and was distributed at the end of April [see photograph]. The video is of the local teacher giving thanks for the rice donation.
