The story in three movements
01 The storm
Floods, earthquakes and cyclones take homes, livelihoods and loved ones in hours. The first days decide how many recover.
02 The arrival
Samadhan volunteers bring rescue support, food relief and clean water to the families who need them, as quickly as they can reach them.
03 The rebuilding
Samadhan means resolution. After the emergency comes the long work of rebuilding homes, health and hope.
