MISSION 2 IN KOBOCHIHAMA

396


the photo with our mission 2 crew is in a lost little village called “kobochihama.” we found out about this place by just driving around asking where people needed help. this village got wiped out but 4 or 5 houses that were on the hill survived. the locals that lived there didn’t want to go to into the evacuation center because they were waiting for their missing loved ones to return. they had no electricity and no water so when we pulled up with our trucks full with food, it felt like we were there for a reason. we passed out food, water, clothes, and vegetables. the most appreciative and the most kindest people in the world. not to mention, strong. finding this little village is the main purpose we do our missions. to help the people that need it the most.
i’m going back there again and again.
