On the 28th of September 2018, a 7.7 magnitude earthquake hit Donggala District Central Sulawesi, Indonesia followed by repeated aftershocks and a tsunami. The death toll, currently at over 1,400, continues to rise, as do the numbers of people missing, injured and displaced. We are saddened by the news of people searching for loved ones and coping with a lack of power, clean water supply, food and shelter.

We are in close contact with people on the ground and are assessing the best way for us to respond. At this point in the relief process, funds are particularly needed. This enables us to get fast aid directly into the hands of those who can disperse it at this time of acute need.

If we are in a place to send a container of aid, we will be updating this page with the items needed.
