3 | As floods and torrential rains keep plaguing many regions of Madagascar, a few citizen initiatives have taken it upon themselves to provide relief to those displaced by the disaster. | Taorian'ny andro ratsy sy ny tondra-drano izay nahazo an'i Madagasikara, dia maro ireo fandraisana an-tanana mahafinaritra ataon'ny olom-pirenena miray hina ho fanampiana ireo tra-boina. |
4 | The authorities reported that 20 people had died and 71,854 had been displaced as of March 3. The current situation poses daunting challenges to coordinating the rescue effort: several dykes surrounding the capital city could burst at anytime under pressure from the continuous downpour. | Ny vokatra farany tamin'ny 28 febroary dia nahitana fahafatesan'olona 14, tra-boina 41 581 ary tsy manan-kialofana 20 000. Na dia eo aza ny fahasarotana goavana ho fandrindrana ny fanampiana noho ny mety ho fahavakisan'ny fefiloha hafa sy ny rotsak'orana tsindraindray, dia maro ireo hetsika tafapetraka ho fanentsenana ireo filàna maika dia maika. |
5 | Still, many associations have come forward to provide first aid kits and staple foods. | |

7 | Wake Up Madagascar is a citizen movement that started during Madagascar's political stalemate in 2010. With more than 9,400 fans on Facebook, its call for action on March 1 helped collect 489 donations, including clothing, shoes, sheets, pillows, mosquito nets, kitchen utensils, and staple products like rice, oil, and corn. | -Wake Up Madagascar, hetsik'olom-pirenena ao amin'ny tambajotra sosialy (izay manana mpankasitraka mihoatra ny 9400 ao amin'ny Facebook), dia nahangona fehezan'entana 489 ahitana akanjo, kiraro, lambam-pandriana, ondana, lay, kojakoja fahandroan-tsakafo, zavatra ilaina an-davanandro (vary, menaka, katsaka, sira, paty, biskoy, mofo dipaina…), labozia, savony, afokasoka, kilalao… taorian'ny antso hanangonana fanampiana tamin'ny voalohany volana marsa 2015. |
8 | By the end of the day on March 1, organizers gifted the donations to the families affected by the flooding: | Rehefa tonga ny hariva dia nanaolotra ireo fanomezana ireo tamin'ny tra-boina sy ny tsy manan-kialofana ny mpikarakara. |

10 | In a Facebook video, Wake Up Madagascar illustrates the spirit of the movement and the charity its members managed on March 1: | Indro ny lahatsary izay mandravaka ny filozofiany sy ny hetsika ataony ho fanohanana ireo tra-boina: |
11 | The video explains that there is no time to waste when it comes to showing national unity and mobilizing to help the less fortunate. | Pikantsary avy amin'ny lahatsarin'ny Wake Up Madagascar -Weselfie2015 hoan'ny fikambanana Akamasoa |
12 | Not shying from politics, Wake Up Madagascar also faults members of Madagascar's parliament for showing more interest on new 4X4 trucks than their displaced constituents. Make sure that you tell the MPs and the members of the government that you do not agree with the fact that MPs are about to award themselves 4X4 trucks. | Tetikasa natomboky ny mpianatra vavy roa ao la Réunion: isaky ny misy selfie #weselfie2015 (ao amin'ny Facebook, Twitter, Instagram) mivoaka dia misy 50 centimes euros arotsaka ao amin'ny fikambanana Akamasoa tarihin'ny mompera Pedro - izay miasa hoan'ny fianakaviana izay miaina ao anatin'ny fanatobiana ny fakon'ny tanànan'Antananarivo renivohitra. |
13 | Food distribution in Antananarivo, Madagascar via Wake Up Madagascar | Efa maro ireo olom-pirenena efa nandray anjara. |
14 | The Weselfie2015 project was launched by two university students from Reunion Island. | Hoan'ireo te-handray anjara dia manana hatramin'ny alakamisy 6 marsa izy ireo hanaovana izany. |
15 | For each selfie tagged with #weselfie2015 (on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram), 50 Euro cents (about $.55) will be donated to the Association Akamasoa of Father Pedro, a humanitarian, anti-poverty association from Madagascar that works with families and orphans living in Antananarivo. | |
16 | Many citizens have already joined in the campaign, and those who still want to participate have until March 6 to sign up. | Indreto ny sasantsasany amin'ny selfie ataon'olom-pirenena mandray anjara amin'ny fandraisana an-tanana: |

21 | L'Élan du Cœur (“Drive from the Heart”) is a citizen initiative that aims to encourage young Malagasy people to contribute to the future of the country by focusing on the education of the impoverished children. | - Ny L'Élan du Cœur dia fandraisana an-tanana ataon'olo-tsotra ao amin'ny tambajotra sosialy. Ny tanjon'ny vondrona dia ny hanentana ny tanora malagasy hihetsika sy ho liana amin'ny hoavin'ny firenena sy hampifantoka ny hetsika ataony amin'ny alalan'ny fanabeazana ireo tena sahirana. |
22 | Faced with the recent floods that hit the capital city, L'Elan du Coeur has organized a food and donation bank that will remain open until Thursday, March 5, to provide assistance to the victims. | Manoloana ny tondra-drano izay nahazo ny renivohitry ny Nosy, dia nikarakara fandraisana fanampiana hatramin'ny alakamisy 5 marsa hoan'ireo tra-boina ny Élan du Cœur. |

24 | In the urban quarter of Soavina and Ankazotoho Anosimahavelona, the Danny Gemestone Association and Foko Madagascar blog community came together to distribute rice bags, candles, and water bottles. | Ohatra vitsivitsy ihany amin'ny fandraisana an-tanana ataon'olo-tsotra ireo ary mbola misy hafa any. |
25 | These are just a few examples of citizen initiatives and there are still many others, of course, doing important work on the ground today in Madagascar. | Fa ireo fandraisana an-tanana telo ireo no maneho fa mijoro hifampivondrona ny olo-tsotra hanohana ireo olo-tsotra hafa tahaka azy izay mitady fanampiana. |
26 | As ordinary concerned individuals get their feet wet and their hands dirty, those in the flooded areas they can't reach are still waiting on the state to follow suit and swing into action. | Fotoana izao hampitovian'ny governemanta sy ireo rafitra efa za-draharaha tadin-dokanga amin'ireo ohatra mahafinaritra maneho fahafoizan-tena ireo. |
