Caring individuals brave the rain to provide supplies to flood victims

For the first time in 50 years, Taiwan issued two storm warnings simultaneously, when typhoons Nesat and Haitang pounded the island. Pingtung County was most affected by the typhoons and witnessed serious flooding throughout the region. Thankfully, human benevolence was evident throughout Pingtung in the form of charitable organizations, which braved the rain to access all areas affected by the flooding, providing assistance and camaraderie. Private businesses and the government worked hand-in-hand to protect Pingtung as it waited out the storms, with good Samaritans and businesses providing daily necessities. Volunteers from Sunshine Social Welfare Foundation seamlessly handled operational logistics from behind the scenes, ensuring disaster rations arrived smoothly into the hands of weary residents. 

With serious flooding in towns and villages throughout the county, Pingtung Department of Social Welfare stated that anyone affected by the flooding should contact township offices for flood assistance or relocation. In accordance with standard procedures, household registration information should be provided as evidence of residency and photographic evidence of flood damage attached for verification.

50年來首例，尼莎、海棠雙颱陸警齊發、接續襲來，屏東縣位於颱風侵襲的重點區域，各地傳出淹水災情，善心機構紛紛深入各災區協助與關懷付出，風雨中溫情在屏東處處可見。包括公私部門攜手合作，守護屏東度過雙颱，有善心人士與企業提供物資、陽光志工隊居中牽線並運送無縫接軌。

由於雙颱期間造成本縣部分鄉鎮淹水嚴重，屏東縣政府社會處表示，若民眾住家有受災事實者，可依程序檢附受災事實佐證照片、戶籍資料及其他佐證資料向鄉鎮市公所申請住戶淹水救助或安遷救助，
