How can children help to rebuild communities?Children from El Salvador contributed so much after the 2001 earthquakes, by:
- Helping to clean up refuse and rubble, planting trees and plants
- Helping to build houses, asking others to help rebuild communities, encouraging those who feel sad
- Helping each other, encouraging our parents, not being worried, not being afraid, helping other kids who feel scared
- Bringing water and food or whatever to those who are rebuilding
- Organising clean-up campaigns, dynamics to make us happier, starting recreational groups
- Welcoming the institutions that help us reconstruct and not wasting what they give us
- Holding educational meetings, learning to draw, colour, read, write and express our opinions
- Helping other communities
- Caring for little brothers and sisters while our parents are working
- Organising themselves to rebuild their school
