Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association relief news update from Brazil.
On September 26, a heavy rain and winds caused a state of emergency to be declared in 32 municipalities
of the three southern Brazilian states of Santa Catarina, Rio Grande do Sul and Paraná.
Some 130,000 people were affected and over 10,000 displaced, as at
least one person perished when several rivers burst their banks.
With all her love and sorrow, Supreme Master Ching Hai donated
US$15,000 on October 1 to help those most in need, especially the
elderly, lone orphans and injured.
This amount could obtain US$69,000 in items purchased in the United States, based on Brazil’s cost of living.
Per Supreme Master Ching Hai’s request for updates, the following is our Association member’s report via Foreign Group.
October 2, 2009 Most benevolent Master,
Re:
Flood in Brazil We have already contacted several authorities and Civil
Defense departments of affected regions, and they all replied that
everything was well taken care of, with no need for immediate relief
work.
The government has responded to the disasters in such a
quick manner that whenever we arrived at the affected sites, we saw
people already receiving relief aid and the government rebuilding
houses, etc.
We are really thankful for Master’s merciful concern, and we are very happy to say that the present situation is fine.
We will report to Master if there is any need in the future.
Love from Association members in Brazil
