Visiting senators' offices, students convey passion for environmental sustainability
For Mennonite Central Committee
One year after Typhoon Haiyan destroyed the house of Dominga Arias in the Philippines, the 50-year-old widow and mother of three has a new home with a more spacious bedroom than before.
The simple wood structure with a tin roof was built by combining wood from her old house with a shelter kit of new wood, tin roofing, rebar and building supplies provided by Mennonite Central Committee through Church World Service and its partners.
