Ghion Peace, Reconciliation, and Development Association (GPRDA) has stepped forward to provide critical humanitarian assistance to 15 households deeply affected by the tragic Maykadra atrocity of November 2020, which claimed numerous lives and left lasting scars on the community.
In a compassionate response to the ongoing plight of survivors, GPRDA mobilized its internal resources to deliver essential supplies to the impacted families. The aid packages included vital food items such as sorghum, cooking oil, and split yellow beans, addressing the immediate nutritional needs of those who continue to grapple with the aftermath of the violence.
To ensure the aid reached those most in need, GPRDA collaborated closely with the Maykadra Town Women and Social Affairs Bureau. This partnership enabled the identification of the most vulnerable households, particularly families who lost their primary breadwinners during the atrocity, ensuring that the support was directed to those who needed it most.
The handover ceremony, held in Maykadra, was attended by key community leaders, including the Mayor of Maykadra, the Head of the Women and Children Affairs Bureau, the Principal of Maykadra High School, and other local representatives. Their presence underscored the collective commitment to supporting survivors and fostering the long-term recovery and rebuilding of the community.
This initiative by GPRDA not only provides immediate relief but also serves as a beacon of hope for the survivors, demonstrating the power of solidarity and compassion in the face of unimaginable hardship. The organization’s efforts highlight the importance of continued support for communities affected by violence, as they work to heal and rebuild their lives.
