Bamboo mats as resilient home-building material

Dear All Friends,

Warm greetings from Leyte and Samar and thank you very much for your generous donation to our home-building project. There is still so much to be done in terms of providing decent homes to typhoon survivors here and building materials are getting scarce. The good thing is that we are blessed with plenty of bamboo and bamboo is one building material that is very effective, strong and easy to use. Compared with tarps that were distributed and used as shelter materials here, bamboo is still more effective and cool especially during hot weather. As social enterprise, we also provide bamboo mats to a few international NGO's still implementing projects here as donor support is getting low.

Hoping for your continuing support to this very valuable project.

Very sincerely yours,

Cora
