and also the people
in the Gulf coast, recovering from the Hurricane
Since Hurricane Gustav struck the Gulf Coast of
the United States, Save the Children has
assisted thousands of displaced children and families who
have sought shelter at evacuation centers throughout
Louisiana and Mississippi.
Children are
extremely vulnerable during an emergency and evacuation and
they need your support. We know from experience that their
needs are often overlooked during the confusion before,
during and after a disaster. With the help of caring
supporters like you, Save the Children will be there to
ensure the safety and wellbeing of children in shelters and
to help children, their parents and their communities return
to normal once the danger has passed.
