Sasha and his volunteers are broken hearted for those in the Turkey earthquake. This report is written while traveling to those in need; therefore, the report is full. Please read his entire description of the relief efforts.
'...Chris, Over the last few days, we purchased products in Antalya and distributed them to the refugees in our area.
On Tuesday, I had the opportunity to travel to Bilek where there are 1,500 refugees. There is a camp for refugees there, and they asked us to bring food items and clothes, which we purchased or gathered from donations, and took to them....
On the way to that city, we stopped by a small hotel that is housing refugees, and there we helped one family with their humanitarian aid needs. When we arrived, many Ukrainian families also came out of the hotel. Some of them are refugees from the war in Ukraine, others of them are refugees from the earthquake. They also had many requests for their needs, so we went and purchased food, hygiene, cleaning, and clothing supplies to help them as well....
Today we purchased thermal underwear to take to distribute tomorrow in the city of Hitai, a place very hard hit by the earthquake. We plan to be in that city, and the surrounding area, for the next 4-5 days. We will help distribute humanitarian aid while we are there, as well as bring some tents with us for the housing needs they have.
We have also ordered additional tents, which the suppliers are currently sewing and preparing for us for a future trip.
Please pray for us as we travel. If I am able to, I will keep in contact with you while I am in Hitai. If I cannot be on the internet, I will touch base with you once I’m back home. GOD BLESS YOU"
ORH was thankful to send $2200.00 immediately to Sasha. More will follow as God supplies.
He and his volunteers are brave, and it is vital that everywhere prayer is made for their safety.
