The Chalakudi-based Philokalia Foundation is building another 15 houses for the survivors of the July 30 tragedy, and are expected to be ready in a month's time.

The 'Rebuild Wayanad' project of the foundation is supported by donations from kind-hearted individuals, said Mario Joseph, who along with his wife Gigi Mario founded Philokalia. The husband is a preacher-cum-activist and the wife is a counsellor by profession.
