We went up to Xai-Xai, Mozambique last week to assess the situation with regards to the flood relief. We met up with a group of pastors to hear what their plan was to help the local people. Their idea is to ask donor families to pack the following items into a 20/25 litre plastic bucket with a sealing lid. This is planned for a family of 5.

• – 2x soap
• – 2 x hand towels
• – 1 x tooth paste
• – 5 x toothbrushes
• – 1 x plastic basin for bathing
• – 1kg Salt
• – 4kg Sugar
• – 100 x Tea bags
• – 4 x 200g beans
• – 4 x soya mince / soup
• – some sweets for kids
• – 5kg Rice
• – 2kg Pasta
• – 2 litres oil
• – 1 x vasaline (skin care)
• – a pack of candles
• – matches.
• – We also want to encourage donors to include a family photo and a note/prayer to help the affected family feel that there are families who care for them.

If you can help in this regard please feel free to contact us: 082 54321 80 (Rolf), or info@3d-outreach.
