Campaign Story

Our goal is to raise $5,000 towards expanding our DRR activities in the following ways:

1. Perform a Disaster Risk Assessment in each community to determine what risks are present and to build awareness;

2. Training on disaster preparedness and what to do in the event of a catastrophe;

3. Training on basic medical care and disaster response;

4. Training on safety precautions for the whole community and how to evacuate the most vulnerable; and

5. Working closely with local governments and agencies to better communicate before and immediately after a natural disaster in order to secure relief aid.

Help us help our communities in becoming proactive, rather than reactive, when disaster strikes. By supporting this campaign, you are helping to save lives and reduce the impact of the next flood, earthquake, hurricane, tsunami and volcanic eruption!

Thank you for your support in helping our distant neighbors stay safe and continue to improve their lives!
