Madagascar Flood Drive

previousnext

The island of Madagascar was recently hit with a Tropical Cyclone and continues to experience severe flooding due to cotinued heavy rainfall. Over 100,000 have been affected and many more are now suffering from starvation due to the destruction of crops.

It has estimated that it would take at least three more months for the water to go down due to the lack of infrastructure to properly drain the water.

A group of Andrews University students will be traveling to Madagascar for a study tour this spring (leaving May 17). With them, the students will be taking items for the children, women and men who have been affected by the storm.

Please help us help them by donating any of the following items:

• Basic necessities and toiletries (for all ages and gender)
• School supplies
• Water purifiers
• Solar powered lanterns/flashlights
• Clothing
• Suitcases (to help transport the items)
• Cash

Any donation will be a blessing!

Items may be dropped off at the Community & International  Development Program located in Buller Hall 203. For more information or if you would like to take part in the Study Tour please contact us at 269-471-6538 or cidp@andrews.edu.

Thank you!
