ONGOLIAN PEOPLE
NEED HUMANITARIAN HELP
AFTER FLOOD
On July 10th, a
terrible flood wiped out a portion of Ulgii
City, the center of Bayan-Ulgii Aimag in western
Mongolia. The mud-flood destroyed 170
households, and one child died.
Currently, there are around 700 people
who have become homeless in Bayan-Ulgii
and are taking shelter inside local school
buildings and at relatives' homes.

|
The Ulaanbaatar Committee is collecting money for school supplies to help the children affected by the flooding. If you would like to make a donation, please do so
HERE.
If you have any questions, please email
