On the night of September 8th, a 6.8 magnitude earthquake shook the Atlas mountains in Morocco causing much death and destruction, with almost 3,000 already confirmed dead.
The epicenter was located about 45 miles southwest of Marrakech, a city of about 840,000 people.
Morocco Project Statistics
The shelter project in Morocco lasted just over 3 months. In that time we were able to build 569 shelters which provided an insulated, earthquake-proof dwelling for around 3,500 people. Volunteers spent 10,000 hours building shelters, with the PCCR team alone volunteering about 3,700 hours of their time to make this project happen.
On behalf of all the Moroccan families who now have a warm, stable shelter to survive the winter: Thank you! Whether by volunteering, donating or praying for the project, you’ve helped us leave a lasting impact and make a life-changing difference in Morocco.
