Why this Project is Important
Potential Long Term Impact
By helping these families with their living expenses and children's education, we can help them through the difficult loss of their fathers, sons, husbands and give them a better chance to recover.

My visits were frequent enough that I became known to many of the guards at the main gate of the hotel, who always greeted me warmly. They became friends so now I want to help their families recover.
