Phase 1: Immediate Response

After a series of 19 typhoons and tropical depressions, Vietnam is facing one of the most severe disasters in recent years. Over 400 people have died, 727 have been injured, and more than 337,000 homes have been destroyed. Furthermore, over 553,500 hectares of crops are now underwater, which will affect these communities much greater in the long term by ruining their food & livelihoods.

Thousands of families have been left without shelter, food, and access to clean water.

Our GEM Europe team is on the ground delivering aid to those who have been affected the most.
