The Shree Sanatan Dharm Pratinidhi Sabha of Fiji has distributed more than 500 food ration packs to families affected by TC Yasa in the Northern Division which is worth $10,000.
President, Sarju Prasad says they have reached out to areas such as Bua, Nabouwalu, Vunivau, Seaqaqa and Dreketi and they are currently focusing on the greater Labasa area.
He says these food packs include essential items such as rice, flour, sugar, tea leaves, oil, tin fish and soap.
Prasad says they are currently planning on their next phase of assistance which is the distribution of stationery to students in affected areas but they are yet to discuss this with the National Executive Council.
He says people from Suva and Nausori have also donated some building materials which will be distributed to people who have lost their homes.
