Disaster and Famine Relief Offering
In 2007, ADRA brought hope, healing and relief to more than 400,000 disaster survivors. From mudslides to fires, from earthquakes to civil unrest, ADRA was there.
Last year alone, ADRA Australia responded to disasters in Australia and overseas; including the Solomon Islands tsunami, the floods in Nepal, droughts in Queensland and many more. Oftentimes ADRA turns to our Disaster and Famine Relief Fund during these crises to provide immediate relief and support to those affected. However, your continued support is needed to help replenish the fund to enable ADRA to provide future assistance.
The annual Disaster and Famine Relief Offering will be collected in Seventh-day Adventist churches on 24 May 2008. Your donations enable ADRA Australia to continue providing food, medical aid, emergency relief and development assistance to those in crisis.
