The Hungary Helps Program has donated several hundred non-food relief packages to the Chadian Ministry of Social Action, Solidarity, and Humanitarian Affairs to support those affected by the 2024 floods in Chad. The donation was handed over to the Secretary-General of the Ministry by the operational head and local staff of the Hungary Helps Agency.
The packages included women's hygiene products, essential household items, hygiene kits, school supplies, as well as lamps and solar panels, providing assistance to individuals who lost their homes or were temporarily displaced due to the recent floods. The aid aims to help restore basic living conditions for those affected. Distribution of the packages will be carried out under the coordination of the Ministry, with particular attention to ensuring that the most vulnerable groups, such as women and children, receive the support.
This donation is another outstanding example of the dedicated collaboration between the Hungary Helps Program and the Government of the Republic of Chad, focusing on the swift, effective, and direct support of those in need. The Secretary-General of the Ministry emphasized:
“The donation has arrived at the most opportune time for our compatriots affected by the recent floods, who need help to return to their homes.”
Mahamat Abdelkerim Bagari underlined that the relief items will be distributed quickly and equitably to those most in need. The Hungarian humanitarian aid strengthens the Chadian government’s efforts to provide a rapid and effective response to the affected population. On behalf of the entire ministry staff, the Secretary-General warmly thanked Hungary Helps for its generosity, saying,
“Together, we can overcome today’s challenges and build a better future for everyone.”
