GoFundMe Appeal Zimbabwe Relief Updates

United States-based GoFundMe Zimbabwe campaign coordinator Freedom Chari says there has been overwhelming support for the relief efforts. He wrote:

Zimbabwe Relief Updates. The team on the ground has been overwhelmed by the response by the citizens and the corporate world. So far 20 thirty-tonne trucks full of food, blankets, water, clothing etc have been dispatched to Chimanimani. Roads are impassable.

There are teams in Mutare, Bulawayo Masvingo Gweru and other towns. A team of 20 doctors already in Chimanimani. There are people who have availed their services for search and rescue. Several people have availed trucks and helicopters to be used for the delivery.

There has been a team of bikers that have been carrying food through the rough terrain. We are working well with the Civil Protection Unit who ultimately have to coordinate the airlifting of the food to the places that are cut off.
