Alleviating suffering and promoting hope, growth, and stability in war-torn countries

Every field. Every playground.

Your support helps us clear land of mines and dangerous explosives and return it back to the people. Mine-free land means more playgrounds, more farms, and more opportunities for thousands.

Thank you for your support, which helps men, women, and children live free without the fear of landmines.

I'd like to help!
