Families who lost a member in the quake will receive 31 billion rials ($738,095)—50 million rials ($1,190) for each family member—and a total of 150 billion rials ($3.57 million) will be paid on construction licenses for new homes. 
The grants will be provided through the Iranian Red Crescent Society in a month.
