YSA Helping Hands in Sardinia

Disaster in Sardinia


Italy declares state of emergency in Sardinia after deadly cyclone


(Reuters) - A cyclone killed 18 people and made hundreds homeless as extreme rainfall flooded eastern parts of the Mediterranean island of Sardinia, Italian authorities said on Tuesday. The government declared a state of emergency after Cyclone Cleopatra dropped 450mm of rain in an hour and a half overnight, causing rivers to burst their banks, sweeping away cars and flooding homes across the island.

Friday evening, five of the Roma Young Adults along with their leaders went with a group organized by the Stake to do service in Sardinia for the weekend in cleanup efforts.

Apartment Inspections

We drove to Elder Wortham and Busdicker’s apartment way out in the country. It was a beautiful drive, but the mission is moving them into a closer apartment because of the time and gas it takes to get there.
