Indonesia is one of the most disaster-prone countries on Earth. It lies on the Pacific “Ring of Fire” where volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, landslides, drought, and forest fires frequently happen.
We know that the next disaster in Indonesia is not a matter of if, but when.
We urgently need to prepare communities in Central Sulawesi for both catastrophic natural disasters and the rapidly changing climate.
With your support our local partner, Church World Services Indonesia, can work with communities in Indonesia so they are prepared for emergencies and natural disasters. We ensure that people with disabilities are included in this process, so that the most vulnerable people aren’t left behind when disasters strike.
You can help us continue working with these communities over the long term to develop more resilient farming practices and empower women to build future-proof businesses.
By providing resources and training to these communities, we can help make sure that no one is left behind or forced to abandon their homes.
Your gift can make a tangible and lasting impact on the lives of vulnerable communities in Central Sulawesi.
Please give today to make sure that no one is left behind.
