302 volunteers and 18 earthquake-affected organisations in Albania

Currently there are 302 individual volunteers coming from Tirana, Durres, Elbasan, Vlora, as well as a large number of them from Kosovo, Zv said. Justice Minister Fioralda Caka during an interview for the Albanian Telegraph Agency.

“Vulners are immediately engaged in the field in helping residents affected by the earthquake. The volunteer group has been mainly in Durres, Shijak, Kruje, Bubq, etc. To better organize volunteers and to take aid where it needs us to centralize information and therefore to the e-Albania page we have enabled every citizen, volunteer or non-profit organization to register by specifying every day they can serve, at what time and frequency, in what countries and what service they can provide”, says the Caka for ATSH.

Caka points out that, <x0 currently there are 302 individual volunteers who come from Tirana, Durres, Elbasan, Vlora and Kosovo also have a large number of volunteers serving in earthquake-affected areas. We also have 18 non-profit organizations operating on the ground. The way non-profit organisations have been organised so far is that in accommodation centres they have tried to create small camps or playgrounds for children”.

And every centre has been located by the Order of Psychologists, where there are currently 350 psychologists who are providing their own psychological support service to all countries where earthquake-damaged citizens are accommodated. There's over 1500 people so far who've received psychological service”, then Caka.

For the distribution of aid to residents affected by the Caka earthquake explains that, “we are trying to operate with two systems, the first system was that of the State Reserve, where everything goes to the State Reserve and then is selected and distributed according to needs. The other system we're coordinating now is that organizations themselves, citizens can take aid directly to where it should be”. /Attish
