I donated medical equipment and supplies yesterday, Dec. 30, 2021, and the folks there could not have been any more helpful or grateful. Such a terrific experience, I made a monetary contribution today on their website. Great people doing important work. Thank you!

Went on the "experience" tour with my daughter's class and it was a great experience. It definitely made you realize the amount of need the world has that has suffered in crisis. It was eye opening!

Take your family here! I highly recommend this unique experience. The personal feel and deep commitment from this organization is displayed well on the tour. From huts and tsunami waves, your interactions on this walk will be sobering and greatly enlightened.
