  Aceh Rebuilding ACEH REBUILDING PROJECT

The Aceh Rebuilding Project is a response to the needs of the residents on Pulau Banyak Islands in Aceh Indonesia after destruction by Tsunami of the Indian Ocean Earthquake in December 2004.

There are 4 different parts, which the first involves purchasing 300 boats for the fisherman in Pulau Banyak and Singkil who have lost their boats. The second part of the project involves providing an ice making machine and 2 logistic boats for them to bring the fishes they can gather to other islands for sale to provide extra income.

 
 

These 2 projects have been successfully completed with the generous donations of our donors. The third area involved our volunteers to set up mobile clinic and providing teachers training in the neighbouring islands of Nias.

The last part involves reconstruction of the only secondary school in Pulau Banyak Islands which is badly destroyed by the tsunami. This project is currently on-going and is expected to complete by June 2008. These 3 projects are all co-funded by the Singapore Red Cross Society Tidal Wave Asia Fund, but we are currently raising $61,000 to cover the remaining amount needed for this third reconstruction project.
