Cyclone Phailin Reconstruction
Although Cyclone Phailin was one of the greatest disasters of 2013, it has been forgotten by many. The storm damaged or destroyed 800,000 homes, and many people lost every earthly possession they owned. Now, hundreds of GFA World Compassion Services workers are helping these people rebuild their lives.
The original plan was to rebuild 200 homes, but it has since increased to 1,000. Teams also plan to provide education for affected children through GFA's Child Sponsorship Program and continue giving victims basic necessities. Through it all, our workers pray that many will see and understand the love of Christ.
Raising funds will:
- Provide strong, sturdy homes for families affected by the cyclone.
- Be a testimony of the love of Christ to those in need.
