Support victims of the earthquake in Tibet

On April 14, 2010, an earthquake magnitude 7.1 hit the Yushu Prefecture, the largest Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture of Qinghai Province (China). Nearly 90% of the buildings of main city of the prefecture, Jiegu, was destroyed, leaving thousands of people trapped in the rubble and hundreds of thousands of people homeless.

At the moment, the living conditions of the population in the tent camps are still dramatic. Conditions of hygiene are extremely serious, there is no water and there are no toilet facilities. Breeding grounds for tuberculosis are endangering the health of thousands of people. In this period there is a real emergency: the freezing winter has brought the lives of these people to the limits of survival. At Yushu the winter lasts almost all year and in these months, the temperature goes down to minus 30°.

Our partners organisation for this project large Italian Humanitarian Organisation Asia Onlus has just concluded the fifth distribution of aid to the people of Yushu.
