Diakonie Katastrophenhilfe's disaster relief efforts will be working closely with Bavaria and Württemberg's diaconal regional associations in the coming weeks. In an initial move, about 100 drying experts and other essential supplies will be sent to aid affected households in clearing their houses following floodwater recession. Then, they'll dry them to prevent long-term harm from moisture and mold.
