Helping people from conflict-hit areas in the DRC rebuild their lives

Kavira, 35 years old, was left destitute by the armed conflict in Kipese, a small town located in North Kivu province. "My house was burned down, all our belongings were gone. We could no longer hold out because of hunger and the cold at night because we were living outside," she says.

 

Kavira is hoping to rebuild her life. "Now with the money I received, I bought food and sheets for my new house that my husband will build. I am very happy.”
