Tamil Nadu Delta Flood Relief - Fund Raiser
The tropical Cyclone Gaja has destroyed everything on its path along the Kaveri delta region of Tamil Nadu, India which is a major rice producing and agriculturally driven region of the country.
The region has been out of communication, power and medical support and with the current situation help is inaccessible due to damaged infrastructure. There are no confirmed reports on how many people have actually died or missing, while that is being evaluated, the current numbers point to 45 people dead, 250,000 people displaced of their homes, over 175,000 trees uprooted, over 100,000 houses damaged and more than 1000 livestock are estimated to be dead.
