Rebuilding

Uplifting the community is a kind of rebuilding...

With our little project, we will try to uplift the Silagon community's spirit by giving them a Noche Buena feast.  Given the money we have collected to-date we can give each household, in addition to the Christmas dinner, food packs.

One of our volunteers is an architect and he is working now on designing a simple community hall that can serve as a community shelter and as an activity center in the future.  We might be able to help them build a small one or possibly a bigger one.  We are still hoping that our collected donations will be enough by 15 December. 

We cannot provide each of the households enough materials to rebuild their houses and this they understand.  However, we are trying our best to get the attention of other organizations to glance their way and hopefully give them some temporary/permanent shelters.
