RELIEF WORKS IN SICHUAN (BY OXFAM)

Dear friends

I received recently a message from Oxfam reporting the missions of helping Sichuan Earthquake in China, as you may know that the devasting earthquake in Sichuan has made life miserable for a great deal of people in the affected areas. It will be a good news that Oxfam's relief work and concern have let them know they are not alone after earthquake.

Below is an update of Oxfam's relief work in May



Since the earthquake, Oxfam's relief has reached almost all affected areas (85 townships and villages in 17 counties and cities) in Sichuan, Gansu and Shaanxi provinces including 200 tonnes of rice, 312,000 packs of milk, 61,700 bottles of cooking oil, 22,000 quilts, 1,750 tnets, 7,296 rolls of plastic sheets for temporary shelters and 64 temporary toilets in Miaoxian, Wenchuan, Qingchuan, Mianzhu, Shhifang city, Dujiangyan city, Anxian, Guangyan city, Wolong as well as Pengzhu in Sichuan.

Apart from sending relief works and supports to the affected areas, Oxfam has a 5-year plan for the rehabilitation in Sichuan. They have set up an office in Chengdu City to plan, co-ordinate and implement their rehabilitation projects in the province. If you want to express your concern to those affected persons, you are welcome in making a donation to Oxfam because your support will be making a difference to those affected persons living scaur by bringing them hope and a sense of control through Oxfam relief works.

Thank you for supporting this activity.
With Best Wishes
