Severe weather has wreaked havoc across regions in the Western Cape, with strong winds, torrential rain, and floods destroying thousands of informal settlements across Cape Town, South Africa. Over 10,000 people have been affected, with thousands more displaced as the city faces a week of damaging storms.
Islamic Relief is on the ground, assessing the needs and responding to those affected by the storm. We have coordinated a response with Cape Town Disaster Risk Management, who have been on high alert since the beginning of the week, addressing numerous weather-related incidents.
We are committed to ensuring that affected families receive the vital support they need during this challenging time. So far, we have provided hot meals, sandbags, mattresses, blankets, and water to those in need. With your generous donations, we can continue to provide urgent food, blankets, mattresses, water, and other essential supplies to those affected by the floods. Your support will enable us to reach even more people and make a greater difference in their lives.
