What's inside the fund? That $422M pool is covering everything from temporary housing and medical bills to daily essentials. Plus, SAR authorities are pledging long-term support—think home rebuilding, counselling services, and community workshops on fire safety. 🔥🏠
Why it matters: Whether you're in Bangalore, Bangkok, or Cebu, we know how a fire can shake a community. Seeing SAR authorities and local volunteers team up shows the power of collective action. Digital platforms are also making it easier to track aid allocation and volunteer sign-ups in real time. 🌐📲
