Resources
Why this Project is Important
Potential Long Term Impact
The local communities have lost everything. This project allows them to help themselves rebuild, aiding both the communities directly and the local NGOs that supply long term assistance in the area.
Project Message
The area is like a war zone. Families have nothing left, not even photos, and the natural resources are devastated. This project helps to start the rebuild and provides for long-term regeneration.
