CIVA Approves $30,000 for Flood Relief in Bihar and Orissa

Canada India Village Aid wants to thank our donors for making it possible for us to answer the immediate pleas from our Indian partners, Rashtra Seva Dal and ASHA, for help in the wake of the devastating flooding of August and September 2008. Due to our enthusiastic Board and strong relationships with our Indian NGO partners we were able to send over $30,000 Canadian dollars immediately to help in necessary relief efforts. These floods have garnished a dismal amount of Western media coverage and highlight CIVA’s ability to react to situations and help out in tragedies that may fall out of the mainstream spotlight.
