Too many villages got wiped out!


They need "Black-Zinc" roofing -- which is a thick corrugated tar paper
roofing material. Comes in packs -- 4 ft length. Very economic.


They need the small roofing nails for the above.


Not metal sheet roofing! (To long and heavy to back-pack or haul in a canoe)


They will eventually replace their roofs with "thatch".


They need rice and beans -- not tinned foods.


They need simple pots and pans -- and utensils -- pot spoons mainly.


They need machetes and files/stones to sharpen them with.


They need this all right away. Over 8000 of em.


They are already hard at work. They can do their own thing -- just get them
those simple items above -- right away!


Do not get carried away with "fancy" stuff -- like gensets -- metal roofing
-- canned goods -- etc.


They need what I have listed above. And they need that "yesterday".
