Just sayin'

The Idea:
To provide the technological solutions necessary to resist the forces and effects of disasters and unexpected events, organize the large scale volume purchase of components and materials for those affected people and businesses, hiring the local population, (including those who lost homes) in the rebuilding, to address the needs of the communities and to recover in such a way that future events are mitigated. Anyone interested in becoming a member of our Building/Materials buying Coop can register through the subscription newsletter link below (bottom of page). On the subscription form there is a checkbox to indicate your interest. There is no obligation, when enough people register for it we will formalize the program and provide details for potential members. What will it do? Think Food Coop type of effort for construction and building material discounts and bulk buying for members.

5 Ways to Give or Dedicate to a Project

Message or Dedication
Designate your subscription donation with your message.
 


Walowa Young Groupement, Walikale, DR of the Congo
 
We all hear about the problems in Parts of Africa, the Congo, Sudan, Rwanda etc. and wonder how we can possibly effect the situation without knowing who, what, where, when, and how. Prizm doesn't just start fundraising for a cause without having direct knowledge and relationships with an area or disaster when we engage in a project such as this. In the Congo, problems are so complicated, so we entertain projects where we can realize measurable results in urgent micro situations. The Walikale situation was brought to our attention and is within our criteria. The situation IS urgent.
Here is a useful link for the situation in Walikale :

A message from the Exec. Director, Prizm Foundation

How would your family or company manage in the aftermath of a disaster or unexpected event? What planning should you put in place to insure an effective response and recovery? Do you have multiple off site backup data locations, alternatives to lost communications, logistical planning for shelter in-place or mass evacuation? How would you locate key people or family without existing communications available to you? Where would you go in the case of evacuation? What do you need to survive sheltering in place or relocation, for short or long term? What if medical resources are not available or overwhelmed? Do you understand the concept of defensible survival?

You, your business and your family can be more prepared, prevent loss, mitigate damage and provide for recovery. It requires a plan, we cannot depend on outside help, we must take individual responsibility. The experts at Prizm can assist you. Sign up for our FREE Monthly Preparedness Newsletter, What If? for tips and links to resources for your preparedness and future loss prevention. We do not share your contact information with anyone.
