Building Houses in Burma
Wednesday, December 10, 2008 at 9:53AM When a devastating Cyclone hit Burma (Myanmar) in May reports indicate over 2 million people were made homeless. Countless other suffered serious damage to their homes. These homes, by Canadian standards, were very basic to begin with, and the Cyclone made easy work of them. We have played a small part in repairing homes--48 so far. Working with local churches who helped identify the need and supported by donors in Thailand and abroad, we have been able to repair homes to their original state--still very simple, but consistent with the surrounding community. Here are pictures of a few homes after the cyclone and then repaired.
