Flood relief in Karnataka

Michelle Forster is raising money for Habitat for Humanity GB

We believe decent homes are the heartbeat of strong communities and so we also fight for land rights for women, upgrade urban slums and informal settlements, improve access to water and sanitation, and help communities become more resilient in the face of natural disasters.

Story

Severe flooding has devastated the north of Karnataka - the Indian state I currently call home.

As the floods continue to subside (hopefully!), the affected communities are faced with the overwhelming task of cleaning up to help prevent disease, rebuilding homes, and distributing much-needed supplies.

I am travelling to Bijapur on Saturday 10th of October (through Habitat for Humanity) to spend a week helping out. People helping out on the ground (or water) can benefit those affected by the flooding, but they will also need funds - lots of funds - to care for people and rebuild their homes.

Please help me to raise some of these funds!

Thank you :)
