FLOOD RELIEF DONATION
Myanmar, the country the Community Service is based in, has monsoon season around August to September. During those times, heavy rain floods some areas of Myanmar, destroying homes and villages. The people, by the floods, have little to no amount of resources such as food and water.
Therefore, we, ISM high school Community Service team, decided to put our efforts towards alleviating the plight of the people living in a small village of Bago City called "Mon Su village". During the times of flooding, the displaced residents have to set up camps at the elementary school because that is the only place located in highland.
