The earthquake that occurred on 27 May 2006 resulted in 6000 deaths, tens of thousands of persons injured and hundreds of thousands rendered homeless. Our association « Europe solidaire sans frontières » (Europe in solidarity without borders), is facilitating financial aid for the victims of this new catastrophe.

The money gathered will be sent to local people’s organizations who have mobilized themselves in the municipality of Klaten where the districts of Gantiwarno, Wedi, Prambanan, Jogonalan, Trucuk, Cawas, Bayat, and Karangdowo have been most seriously affected.

In this municipality, according to the first estimates, 980 persons were killed, 18,272 were injured and 40,881 houses destroyed. Funds may also be sent to the region of Bantul, depending on needs.

You can contribute to this effort by sending your donations to the ESSF (please mention « Indonesia ») on the back of the check):
