More than 500 people have died in devastating floods and mudslides in Brazil, with thousands more trapped. Save the Children are allocating money from their emergency funds to help children affected and are asking for donations.
In Sri Lanka, thousands of people are in emergency relief camps after flooding. According to Oxfam, over a million people have been affected. They are asking for donations to their emergency fund as they try to provide hygiene kits, tarpaulins, cooked food and bottled water to those affected.
Meanwhile, Medecins Sans Frontieres have a report on Haiti: one year on.
If anyone has any links or suggestions for ways to donate or help any of these three countries, please leave a comment and I'll edit them into the post.
