During the catastrophic floods in Serbia in May of 2014 a number of Health Centers in the affected areas were partially submerged in water causing substantial property and equipment damage. SAMA has swiftly reached out to as many centers as we could offering help. We had immediately set up a Flood Relief Fund and in a very short time received $15,400.00 in donations.
Below are the details on the projects done so far. Our efforts to help flood affected areas continue!
Health Centers in Svilajnac, Požega and Paraćin
We were able to immediately answer urgent requests for basic supplies to clean up and disinfect the facility and equipment and resupply medical materials lost in the flooding. We are proud to say that our volunteers in Serbia were able to deliver help to Centers in Svilajnac and Požega within two weeks of flooding and to the Center in Paraćin as soon as their needs were identified. Total of $5,000 worth of supplies were distributed this way.
