restoration laos

From April 2025 to April 2026, the cost of operating our team is just over $115,000. We will never know how many deaths or injuries don't happen because of our work. But we do know that our team destroys bombs every day, and each of those bombs endangers multiple people. At least 1000 people are directly benefited, at a cost of about $115 per person.

Top reasons to help:

1. Every step represents permanent change.  Once a village is cleared, it stays cleared. Once a bomb is destroyed, it can never again cause fear or death.
2. Guaranteed results.  When land is cleared, it can be used without fear. When a bomb is destroyed, the people it threatened can continue their lives in safety. In this troubled world, it feels good to have a clear win.
3. Universal appeal. In a time when everything seems controversial, this isn't.  Everyone can agree that children should not be killed by remnants of a war from half a century ago.
4. Justice.  The U.S. wasn’t even at war with Laos, but we left the country riddled with bombs. Laos doesn’t have the resources to clean them up and shouldn’t have to: it’s our job. 
5. Cost effectiveness.  Where else can $115 per person transform daily life forever, for an individual, and their children, and their children's children?
