It was devastating for the villages in the mountains.

Numerous villages nestled in the High Atlas mountains endured significant damage, leaving many families in a state of dire need. 
Many of you have expressed a sincere desire to provide practical help to the affected families and to contribute to the rebuilding of these villages.
