IAC calls for assistance for victims of high winds on Corentyne

Dear Editor,
The Indian Action Committee (IAC) has learned that uncommonly high winds associated with a thunderstorm adversely affected the village communities of No 19 and Warren, Lower Corentyne, Region Six, Berbice, during the early hours of Sunday morning, October 23, 2016.
The IAC understands that many of the damaged buildings have already been repaired but that the home of Allimudeen Gobin, 54, who is currently staying with relatives, was completely destroyed, and the organisation will be meeting with him shortly to make a monetary donation.
The IAC has a history of assisting persons whose dwelling has been damaged by high winds.
The IAC takes this opportunity to call on the private sector, and members of the public, including government agencies, to assist Gobin, a cane harvester employed at Rose Hall Estate. to rebuild his home.

Sincerely,
Indian Action
Committee
