4 New Homes Built for widowed, childless, women who were sleeping under the open sky.
Over 100 blankets distributed
On 15th November 2007 , a powerful cyclone caused many deaths and a great deal of devastation to the poor and rich alike, in mostly southern Bangladesh. The poor were the worst hit because if they had homes, they were poorly built and many were simply blown away. We distributed aid on 5 Dec 2007 and later on built 4 new homes and distributed over 100 blankets on 13 Dec 2007.
We visited barguna. It covers the sundarbans, the area occupied by Bengal Tigers, crocodiles, black bears and other wild animals. Most of the official deaths are in an area called Barguna, which is where we went.
