Samoa relief update. 20 October 2009

Ms Adi of Women in Business Development (local Samoan NGO who has been providing amazing coordination for the relief efforts writes "Lise and Nithian arrived here safely and delivered the medical supplies and Lise leaves here tonight. We just can't thank you enough for all your help and support. Lise has been overwhelming in what she has done in the very short time she has been here. She has counselled individuals from our organisation and others and today she did a workshop for our staff and counsellors from two NGOs that have been working in the disaster area, but have expertise in suicide and family issues. She even worked all day Saturday and Sunday! I don't know where she gets the energy from" Picture.. Liese Groot Alberts

Mr Nithinan was sent from AMDA HQ, Japan to bring badly needed medical supplies and Liese Groot Alberts (see www.RoseCharitiesPeople.org ) is one of NZ's top grief and trauma counselors.
