When floods rise, minutes matter. 🌊
Every monsoon, communities in Sarlahi and Siraha watch the rivers with worry. This year, their districts stand better prepared.
Under the SaBaSS Project, our partners handed over life-saving search and rescue equipment to the District Disaster Management Committees of both districts:
📍 Sarlahi — Rural Development Centre (RDC Nepal) handed over a rubber rescue boat, life jackets, and carabiners worth NPR 654,835.
📍 Siraha — Dalit JanKalyan Yuba Club (DJKYC Nepal) handed over a rescue boat set, life jackets, lifebuoy, fire extinguisher, boots, gloves, and rope worth NPR 981,514.
Both handover ceremonies were led by the Chief District Officers, chairs of the respective DDMCs, with the presence of representatives from partners and Plan International Nepal; district security forces; government officials; and other key stakeholders.
Local authorities and security agencies welcomed the support, noting these materials will be crucial for humanitarian response in flood-prone areas.
Because preparedness isn't just equipment — it's the difference between waiting for help and being ready to act. 💙
