Supermodel Helps Build Up Communities Knocked Down by Nature
When it comes to disaster relief, it's not just about first response, it's also about the long-term response. Petra Nemvoca and David Campbell, Co-Founders of All Hands and Hearts – Smart Response, join to share how they are rebuilding communities broken down by nature. The new organization, created by a merger between the volunteer groups the two founded, will work to address the immediate and long-term needs of communities impacted by natural disaster. Nemcova, who is also a supermodel, became involved in disaster relief after surviving the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami in Thailand, which took the life of her fiancé. A few months later, she returned to create the "Happy Hearts Fund". Since the merger, All Hands and Hearts has already built nearly 200 schools and sent over 105,000 children back to school. Nemcova also gave us a couple beauty tips. She says it's important to be happy because it radiates through you.
