Relief work and travel, near and far.

Humanitarian Relief

Showing up after disasters.

Went to New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina, and to Tacloban, Philippines, after Typhoon Haiyan.

In Tacloban we were the first Americans to arrive, and paved the way for the relief efforts that followed by converting a ransacked hospital into a distribution warehouse.
