Imphal: The Association of Meiteis in the Americas (AMA) donated essential commodities worth Rs 16,50,000 to at least 36 relief camps operating at various districts in Manipur on Monday.
“We are delighted to announce that we have raised a sum of over $20,000 (about INR 1650000), thanks to the generous contributions of more than 300 donors. The collected donations have now been efficiently disbursed to the relevant Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) and clubs actively engaged in the relief efforts,” a statement by AMA said.
Appreciating those organizations which are diligently working towards addressing the urgent needs of the individuals affected by the conflicts, the AMA said the donation was aimed to alleviate the suffering and provide essential resources to those who have been forced to leave their homes due to the conflict.
AMA firmly believed in the importance of solidarity and humanitarian assistance during times of crisis. As a global community, it is our responsibility to extend a helping hand to our fellow Manipuris in need. This donation reflects our commitment to supporting the Meitei community and assisting them toward recovery and resilience, it added.
