The two boxes will cost about £1,200 and contain the following. Large family tent, mosquito nets, cooking implements, water purification equipment, blankets, groundsheets, mattresses, lighting, tools, tarpaulins, ground sheets and other useful aids.
The plight and suffering of the people in these areas is heartbreaking with tens of thousands having lost family members and everything they owned.
The boxes are sent on behalf of Darwen Rotary and the people of the town and follows our tradition of sending such help across the world at times of natural disasters
