While noting that the donations can be in cash or kind, the CEO emphasised that the funds would be used for food , insecticide-treated nets, medications, first aid kits, potable water, cooking and eating utensils, diapers, disposable cups and plates, sanitary pads, towels, sponges, toiletries, clothes and mattresses among others.
With this, Sharkhouse has partnered with local fishermen across the Niger Delta. “These fishermen take relief items and cash to the victims. And they also assist those stranded across the waters.
