HAILSTORMS & FLOODING DEVASTATE HAVANA

4/1/2024

0 Comments

 
Intense storms and rainfall on March 22, 2024, caused unusually large hailstorms, downed trees, flash floods, and downed power lines. The National Electricity Union reported that more than 260,000 users in the provinces of Pinar del Rio, Artemisa, Mayabeque, Matanzas, and Havana were without electricity service, particularly in four Havana municipalities where more than 120,000 homes were affected.

Provincial authorities reported there were a total of 26 landslides, 148 people were evacuated to state-run shelters and 762 citizens self-evacuated at homes of relatives and friends.
​
The Armando Rusindo Mission Foundation (ARMF) is gathering information daily on the needs caused by this disaster. Mattresses, household furnishings, personal belongings, and many other items have been damaged beyond repair. The total amount of damages could result in thousands of dollars. 
​

Your donations can help us provide recovery efforts and help the people of Cuba meet their immediate needs. We invite you to donate and pray for the individuals affected by these storms.
