Rebuilding Communities Affected by Disaster
One World.One Love.One Dollar.
It all began with Cyclone Sidr in Bangladesh, where we became involved in a shelters project. We recognized the importance of volunteers in a very specialized sector. As a result SIDR was born. Following Bangladesh, we went to Gonaive, Haiti in the wake of Hurricanes Ike and Hannah. There we assisted in the recovery process, including: the rehabilitation of over 300 wells, to using our expertise in safe site analysis for shelter projects, to latrine project design. It is our mission to teach the locals with whom we work how to organize and implement a long term solution to natural disaster.
Our board; consists of building contractors, engineer, water and sanitation experts,green building professionals, a doctor,and a child rights lawyer , and an agricultural expert on high yield farming on small plots. All dedicated volunteers.
Our volunteers come from all over the globe to assist and train the local community affected.. giving them hope and empower them for a brighter future.
