For Project 6, the team visited 3 villages in the eastern part of Laputta Township. They distributed items to 117 families in Yedagar and MyawChaung Villages, and to another 197 families from villages in the Yedwingwin group, who were staying at the original location of Salaunggya Village. They also handed out some aid packages to families scattered on the river bank along the route.
The team spent about 8 hours on the bus and another 10 hours on the boat (one way) to reach these villages. In total, they spent 36 hours on the road excluding waiting time and loading/unloading.
Below are the list of items distributed:
1. Fish paste (200 packets)
2. Instant noodles (140 packets)
3. Salt (100 packets of 0.25 viss)
4. Yellow lentils (4 sacks - 200kg)
5. Rice (30 sacks - 1500kg)
6. 9-inch plates (200 pcs)
7. Blankets (200 pcs)
8. Cooking pots (200 pcs)
9. Soap (2 boxes - 196 pcs)
10. Sandals (11 doz.)
11. Women's top undergarments (60 pcs)
12. Children supplements (46 bottles)

We hope to be able to update with a full report soon, with details of the route taken by the volunteers.
