Nearly 50 families are still in desperate need of assistance nearly two years after Typhoon Soudelor ravaged the Northern Marianas island of Saipan.

The NGO Commonwealth Advocates for Recovery Efforts, or CARE, has already raised $US2.4 million to assist 745 residents all over Saipan.

But CARE Executive Director Jenny Hegland says more is needed.
