Burundi was ravaged by a 12-year civil war from 1993 until 2005. The nation as a whole remains scarred. Refugees, still in the process of returning to their homeland, face obstacles that include poverty, hunger, HIV/AIDS and inaccessible healthcare.
How to help
In light of the country’s need, Plant with Purpose is working in the Burundian village of Muzye to establish a working economy. The organization seeks to establish sustainable agriculture and equip the people of Muzye with education in business techniques. Visit www.plantwithpurpose.org to further this process. Recurring donations will be matched for the first year.
