Takutu continues rising - Shocked residents scramble.

Houses that were never touched are swamped and residents on high ground have been sand-bagging frantically as the flood in the central Rupununi pushes relentlessly.

Stay tuned for more updates from around the district as RAM responds in collaboration now with the National agencies.

Representatives have been invited to meet twice daily with Acting President Hinds, the Minister of Works along with Col Ramsarup of the Civil Defence Commission at Lethem to coordinate RAM's response.

A relief and assessment flight was conducted late yesterday afternoon with the air-ambulance to the deep south and North Rupununi as the only road in both direction is washed away with scores of communities reporting damages and flooded farms.

Multiple houses have reportedly collapsed in the Lethem area alone as many more are relocating this morning.

Please pray for hundreds of displaced families and thank you for supporting our volunteer efforts.
